Waitress can I have a cup of coffee?
Maybe, one day, you will join me
For you never stop, you never stop

You serve, always with a smile
Taking orders all the day long
For you never stop, you never stop

Seeing you always brightens the day
Cleaning the tables for the next diner
For you never stop, you never stop

So keep a thought for all the waitresses
Coming to your table, serving good food
They never stop, they never stop

A wonderful write Chris and we should always keep in mind that you never know the mind of the one pouring your coffee.  Stereotyping can make one lose out tremendously.  :)

An encouraging word does not hurt. Good reminder.

A very finely penned dedication to those who provide a friendly, warm service and very often under difficult conditions, juggling a job with home care and worries. Often taking flak from customers, though the problem encountered is not the waiter/waitresses fault in any way! All in a day's work! Your care and love for the human being always shines through in your life and your work Chris - Always be YOU, don't ever change, dear friend. Beautiful work! Thank You for sharing, Chris.

I agree with you Chris - I personally like the ones that smile and are friendly - Don't go a bundle on the grouchy ones! - I also agree with Neva in the respect that we as the customer never know what goes on in the mind of the one pouring the coffee - So we should never be presumptious about anybody from any walk of life - The nice smily friendly chatty ones always get good tips as well - Nicely penned my friend -:)

I was a waitress years ago. It's a hard job - thankless. If you wrote this for a special waitress, you should give it to her.....write it clearly on a napkin, wrap a large tip in it, & hand it to her personally.  :)

I'll definitely think twice about who's serving at the diner next time. Great write, Chris :)

This is lovely. I really like the word repetition. very catchy.

so true how we encounter different people everyday and we never just stop to examine them, or see how hard they work especially with a smile...
