Morning Coffee with Signor Bialetti
Wreckage is everywhere, two apple trees down
Limbs and leaves and litter, shingles and wood
The lawns are white with shoals of springtime hail
The lines are down and the power is out
But Signor Bialetti from Italy
A super-hero in aluminum
Is pleased to take his place on the camping stove
Twirl his moustache and stride through Sterno fire
Singing songs from his favorite libretti
While making us coffee – O brave Signor Bialetti!
