Barista in the Mirror

At Opening Bell Coffee

Barista in the mirror

May the embers from the open hearth warm your hands,
May the sun’s rays from the Irish sky warm your face,
May the children’s bright smiles warm your heart,
May the everlasting love I give you warm your soul.

—-Trad. Irish Blessing

Man has no Body distinct from his Soul; for that call’d Body is a portion of Soul discern’d by the five Senses, the chief inlets of Soul in this age.

””And we are put on earth a little space,
That we may learn to bear the beams of love,”

“Good heavens Miss Sakamoto – you’re beautiful!”

It’s poetry in motion
She turned her tender eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
but she blinded me with science
“She blinded me with science!”
And failed me in biology

—Thomas Dolby
