...on #NationalCoffeeDay no less.


(sonnet #MMMMMMMMMDCCLXIX)


Tis Nash'nal Coffee Day, and I've t'avail
Had one sip of home brewed, with two cups hence
Old Starbucks for the thought and aught good sense,
Tea what e'er wakens me, joe that detail
Late culling yawns, til I kin see to scale
Why some imbibe whole pots of coffee, thence
Free yet to sleep, whilst tea, sans piquant scents
Per se, works to keep us awake...sans bail?
Give all a rest and go in search as twere
Of one old poem, to find an invite to
Partic'pate in a "fusion" poem which fer
All that my lines conclude. What did I do?!
Or, how was that?! Be restless sans a cure
For coffee's kicking, and LORD, save me too!
