DAY 1969: Coffee or Tea Surely you drink one or the other know someone who does write about it.

Coffee or Tea

Grandpa drank coffee,
and Grandma drink tea;
despite their difference
they shared 50 years of wedded bliss.

DAY 2364: Write a poem or short story or blog entry about numbers that have special meaning to you.

Special Numbers:
Eighteen

Eighteen is a multiple of nine!

The Bab had eighteen disciples,
who he called Letters of the Living.

Each of the Letters of the Living
searched for the Bab independently
and found him without assistance from
the others.

The Shrine of the Bab
is on Mount Carmel in Israel,
nine terraces ascend the Mountain
to the terraces of the shrine,
and nine more terraces ascend from the shrine
up to the building that cover the crest of Mount Carmel.
