‘Ode to Coffee’ (my first ‘gone public poem’, not recited tho)
Oh coffee so sweet to me
You help me get back on my feet
when I am on the verge of passing out
i know that you will be my best friend
here til the end
giving me large doses of caffeinated alertness
before i used to hate you
now i just crave you
when i haven’t had enough sleep
2 creamers, 2 sugars, the perfect combination
all it takes is just one sip to bring me to elation
i know that you are mine
and i am yours…
dear coffee it is only you that i love
