Your Name Poem by Joseph S. Josephides
Your Name
In my short coffee-pot
the small bubbles
emitting vapour
whisper your name.
Your name rises,
wishes no sunset
only an endless trip;
already back when departed.
Shanghai, Bombay, Dubai
Hawaii, you bend and return.
The distance is long
from the chest to the brain,
no other space is shorter
when you smile and we chat.
But let me come to myself;
let me rush to anticipate,
fill the small pot up to its lips,
before the last dropp is disappeared
before your name is kidnapped and lost
by the implacable law of evaporation alone.

A beautiful love poem and centred around the name of the beloved. Well penned.
Wow, i want to grow up to write like you. I love your imagination and this poem is refreshingly original. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. wow again :)
I love coffee and to stir your emotions with drinking a cup and reference to someone you miss is enticing.
everything one day evaporates.in one way or another.... but how nicely written...
A poem filled with potency…I especially like the analogy the aroma of coffee to the remembrance of someone who is valued friend.

Very interesting and clever, as you were drinking the name of this person with intenseness, yet you said 'Your name rises, to set it doesn't want you' I had a sense you might not like this person by that statement, but then you said, 'endless journey depart but already return. Which made me think instead you love this person and their name. The ending of your poem portrays a special love, 'The distance is long between chest and brain'! ! ! What a statement that could have several interpetations. I had to read it over three times! ! ! ! how passionate you are with these words. Excellent! ! In Depth perception! ! ! ! Deep! What a cup of coffee! ! Enjoyed reading! ! Many Smiles Phebe
