Coffee

Like a warm hug from the one you love

Like sunlight after the rain

Like a beautiful story from a wise old sage

Or relief after much pain

Like orchestral music while reading a book

Like night when the day has been long

Like a black liquid gift from the heavens above

Or the notes of a beautiful song

Like robins that chirp in the cool of the morn

Like time that does not go to waste

Like a breeze blowing in on a hot summer day

Or a love you can smell, you can taste

For thee, O perfect brew and blend

I would search for all my life

And if I found you, before the end

‘Twould be worth every toil and strife.
