If not for the Boston Tea Party, I may never have written this. I would have written something even shorter.

Caffeinated java joy
Olfactorial bliss!
Fill my cup and I will sup
Fill my veins with your
Electric kiss.
Earthy, elemental rite is this.

    Something shorter:

    Teach me to relax,
    Enjoy and unwind,
    As I inhale your spicy breath.

    Comments and poetic responses welcome!

    Original poem sappy; too annoying to inspire.

    Shorter version much better, up to the author’s usual high standard; this one makes me want to commune with a hot cup, because its “spicy breath” proposes an enticing relationship…

    Spoken,
    my dear Pamela Allison,
    like the coffee lover that I know you aren’t!
    Therefore you miss the poetic subtleties…
    But you’re my friend, so I forgive you.
    :)
