Brewin’ – Poem About Coffee
Dark elixir for drowsiness,
Brewed before the dawn stretches and wakes.
Steam rising, birds rousing
Sitting on the porch waiting for the morning to break.
Magical, mystical potion that revives, vitalizes
On Monday morning when we’ve had
A little too much weekend to drink,
Unable to move beyond the temptation of sleep.
Oh, sweet beautiful caffeine,
Millions owe their ability to function to you.
Sleepy head jumps right out of bed
As long as they’ve got their morning brew.
Add a bit of sugar, creamer, spice
Or drink it black just as it comes.
Guaranteed to pull back your covers
And call you out to greet the rising sun.
Sippin’ in the silence of a sleepy morning,
While the rest of the world snores deep in sleep.
I’ve got a whole pot brewin’
Watchin’ a new day stumble down the city streets.

Frozen Rivers: A Collection of Poems about Mental Health and Nature Poetry About Winter by Justin Farley

My current collections of poetry, all available on Amazon, all written by me, Justin Farley. A Voice in the Wilderness is a chapbook of Christian Poetry, written about the joys, doubts, struggles, and sorrows of the Christian life. Nature’s Bounty is a collection of nature poetry celebrating my love for the outdoors. And Thorns of Love is the first book of three in a series of poems about love, this one being sad, breakup poems.
I have also published two poetry collections about the seasons and mental health–each book containing half nature poems about the particular season and half mental health issues that I felt correspond with the season. The first collection I published was Frozen Rivers which is about winter and also the hardships of life and specifically living with mental illness. My latest book is Blossoms of Hope which focuses on spring and finding hope during hard times.
I write to reach the hearts of the searching, the suffering, the still fighting. I write to soothe my soul and hopefully to soothe yours too. I write to celebrate and attempt to put words to the beauty of life. Here are my published books on Amazon. More to come. A huge, humble thank you to anyone who supports my work.
