The artshow at nowhere coffee

​     There once was  a charming cozy coffee shop , that called for artists to submit their interpretations of being "accidentally in love." With a "why not" kind of feeling, I got to work and created a colorful, flowing, abstract painting with hearts, wings, and cloudlike structures. Winding its way through the piece is the saying, "of all the java joints in all the world, she walks into mine."
     As the paintings were displayed, each piece told its own unique story of love and longing. When it came time for the employees to vote for a favorite artwork, I was overjoyed they selected mine! This resulted in the coffee shop purchasing and permanently displaying it. 
     This experience is made even more special because my grand-children, Paige and Lucas work there. Now, when I walk in to get coffee and visit them, I am reminded that love and new experiences can be found in unexpected places and sometimes it's as simple as a cup of coffee shared with someone special.
