An Ode to Coffee

Bitter enveloped by sweet cherries –

A sustenance boiled from a bean

The taste – Dependant on the mood

The smell – Never unwelcomed

The memories – Of sipping or gulping

The first sip – At two with dad

 

Like a comforting kiss with a familiar partner

Never the same twice –

Keep your promises,

Keep me energized,

Keep me inspired,

Keep me embraced by you.

 

An incomparable two faced lover

The whispers of promises wafts upwards

The steam coming to greet you

The scorching liquid wrapped around your tongue

Burning it completely –

A semi permanent reminder

 

Of perfect bliss.
