I take a slow sip,
taste first sunshine then shadow:
coffee lemonade
memorias agridulces
in a distant time and place.
This memory is sponsored by a paint chip poetry prompt.
We were in Colombia when I was first offered coffee lemonade. I asked, “What does it taste like?”
“Like coffee. (pause) And lemonade.”
And was it good…?
