Cup of Joe

Missing image

Where is my morning coffee

I have got to have it soon

It gets my heart started

I cannot wait till noon

 

Why am I so dependent

on this little cup of Joe

I seem to feel more alert

the reason I don't know

 

It is a comforting thought

that satisfies my soul

What ever the reason is

it helps me reach my goal

 

I hope no one will get upset

if it takes a little while

For me to drink my cup of Joe

and crack my usual smile

 

Without my coffee I am grumpy

I really don't mean to be

But I really need my coffee

to see things properly

    Welcome to the coffee addicts club. Membership costs the price of the coffee you drink. I just love this poem, it describes my start of the day perfectly. It is also very well written, Good luck.

    I like this one

    First thing I do in the morning, last thing I do at night. I grind my own because I like my coffee with a capital K.
