Good-bye


We had a good run, you and I.  For years you stood by me, offering warmth and energy when I rolled out of bed.  There you would be keeping vigil on the kitchen counter with the blender and toaster, ready at an instant to leap into action, gurgling and brewing.

Sadly, as the summer winds down and the leaves start to turn you too have reached the end of existence.  With barely a flutter of your green light you sit silent and unmoving, the water left cold and the grounds still dry.

Good-bye my faithful friend, my little coffee maker.
