Double Iced Espresso



....


We took a long meandering walk through North Beach last weekend,
then stopped at a sidewalk cafe (Rose Pistola), and with the tab came this poem:

Recipe for Happiness in Khabarovsk or Anyplace

One grand boulevard with trees
with one grand cafe in the sun
with strong black coffee in very small cups


One not necessarily very beautiful
man or woman who loves you


One fine day


-Lawrence Ferlinghetti

...


That's what it felt like, only I think he's beautiful.
