Coffee Cup Canzonetta

Our back cupboard, the one which lies above the microwave, houses backup coffee cups, with faded image of turtle doves or like the camel cup just unwieldy. Others with flaws, cracks or broken handles patiently waiting for someday repair holding memories some might say shambles patiently waiting for someday repair.
