Different Kinds of Coffee Mugs

One of my favorite poems that I've written is titled "Intermixing Coffee on Martin Luther King Jr. Day." This poem references the need to mix together different coffee mugs. The reality is that I have multiple kinds of cats and other decorations on my different coffee mugs. I also often mix them up, so the ones in the back are moved forward. As you can see from the picture in this posting, the mugs are black, white, blue, etc. The cats also are quite different. Some of the mugs are old, some are young, some have cat images, some have flower pictures, etc. I love the variety and the different colors.

Here is my poem "Intermixing Coffee on Martin Luther King Jr. Day," which is on page 14 of Holidays Amaze:
 
       The cupboard’s back space had black coffee cups:
       on hooks the cups were all hanging sadly
       in spots like slaves with no chance of hookups
       to some freedom of shifting forward free.
 
       The cupboard’s front space had coffee cups white:
       on wooden ground were they all standing straight
       with no hooks to keep them in spots unbright;
       at times, they’d even roll from cupboard’s gate.
 
       “I love Martin Luther King Junior’s speech:
       ‘I Have a Dream.’ He would never have placed
       his coffee cups like this.” A hand did reach
       and make the black and white cups interlaced.
 
       Like people on buses, the cups became free
       to intermix and taste of each other’s coffee.
