Living For The Mornings Part 3

The Old Coffee Cup

Years upon end we sipped
from the old coffee cup that
were used in restaurants...
 
Its use dated back when the 
yonder moon did break upon
the night, yet night was young! 
 
Neighbors were nice enough then
to fill it about one-third of the way.
It then felt full we could not tell, it
was so very heavy and was fun!
 
It was used for a shaving mug
oh no! How could that be when
the coffee lovers would need it
to drink coffee and to feel free?
 
But it was said that things are
now newer so it went as an
antique and there were fewer!
 
Now we drink from fancy mugs
that spell the mornings with the
word "Coffee" on the outside!

A Coffee Stir Up

Let a handsome man stir my
coffee for me for it's a thing
of the past to stir my own.

I hopped upon the cafe' stool
to only ask for one cup of
hot coffee but it lasted twice.

So did my handsome husband
as he sat beside me and stirred
my every cup of coffee for me!

Now you know the story of the
handsome man that stirred my
coffee...hmmm.
I didn't mean to bring a stare, but
when in the coffee cafe' you need
your handsome husband there!

Coffee Levels the Mornings

Why would anyone want to be
jolted with a calmness yet the
most grandest wake up call?

Coffee says it well! It wipes the
concerns of the mornings' work
with a steady swipe! A grand
finale then another cup or so!

It moves the movers and then the
dreamers wake up to see that the
work is moving towards its end!

The shakers take heed and the
steady flow of coffee is observed
coming toward diehards' of coffee!

Cafe' goers will never be the same as 
it was then so it is now, coffee lovers
will not chill out, they will only hold
up another cup for more coffee!

Coffee Café Atmosphere

                               ~
Drifting, dreaming…almost like home
for  the atmosphere flows with music
and the mesmerizing aroma of coffee
                       blends!                              

Cozy settings…exposed by the light of
   the mornings and the softness of the
                      early hours! 
                              ~
Sit and dream,…or sip hot coffee from
logo cups which gives more meaning to
             the coffee in your cup! 
                              ~

Space is given for…thoughts to run free
 for they know that you need the space
            and time to absorb life!
                               ~

The power of…more than one sets the
   stage as you feel it in the air, it’s the
positive nature of patrons sipping coffee,
reading, talking and otherwise happily
                    enthused!                            

When you walk in…you sense feelings
of lots of service and freedom that go
                   hand in hand! 
So it is with the Coffee Café…for it is
where poetry and coffee meets before
the road is traveled and people are all
                   the better for it!  
                                ~
