Dec 2012
For Coffee, for Love
Under cozy cover,
Windows frosted opaque.
Only for my lover,
I venture out to coffee make.
But alas in bed I tarried,
For this poetic diversion.
She asked "did the man i married
have a bohemian conversion?"
"What happened to my capitalist?
Defender of the cave.
So engaged in literary bliss,
T'is an odd way to behave."
"Sing-songing your words,
In verse and clever rhyme.
Like delicate spice and subtle herbs.
Or the sages throughout thyme
But I warn thee, be not delayed,
My coffee for to make.
For those vows we once relayed,
Covered-not this grave mistake!
In mid-verse to pause I must,
This poetic treasure trove.
And with greatest haste, raise dust,
For coffee* and for love.
*Technically for cappuccino, but still for love
