There is peace where love resides. Michelle Liew.

This is for Mikeydred's December Prompt and Vocal's Holiday Reflections in Verse challenge.

These holidays, may we give love...to experience peace.

*****************************************************

Lone barista cries

Froth spills as his tears drip in

His love’s warmth now lost.

*****************************************************

A hurried farewell,

Caffeine’s bitter taste still holds

Peace comes with love’s light.
