Ode To Coffee

Ode To Coffee

A Poem by Stacy Purvis
"

Just a morsel in reference to my Love affair with Coffee <3

"
Ode To Coffee, That Frivolous, Daunting Liquid
50 Shades To Cure Your Pain
An Open IV Right Into My Vein.

Ode To Coffee In All It's Dark Splendor
Flirting With Danger And Full Of Lust
Beckoning With Flavor, Each One Robust

Ode To Coffee Without Which I'd Be Dead
My Cup Is Ready And Awaiting Your Hue
Au Revoir Until Then, I Bid Thee, Adieu.

"Ode To Coffee, That Frivolous, Daunting Liquid
50 Shades To Cure Your Pain
An Open IV Right Into My Vein." - A good choice of Ode poem material. Some grammar things I noticed - you don't need to capitalize "that", "Daunting" and so on. Unless you've done it for aesthetic purposes. I notice that you've done it throughout the whole piece, so if It has a purpose - keep it. I applaud you're consistency.

"Ode To Coffee In All It's Dark Splendor
Flirting With Danger And Full Of Lust
Beckoning With Flavor, Each One Robust" - I don't usually care for a ton of rhyming in poetry, but I feel like the rhyming is not detrimental to the poems intent here. It's not distracting and I believe the words fit nicely.

"Ode To Coffee Without Which I'd Be Dead
My Cup Is Ready And Awaiting Your Hue
Au Revoir Until Then, I Bid Thee, Adieu. " - I like the playful tone of the piece. It's easygoing and fun to read.

Overall, I like that the piece only lasts about a sip of said coffee. Interesting description and word choice. Great ending. Thank you for the read, write on.

Thank you all so much for your wonderful compliments. I haven't been on here (much) lately due to a bout with influenza.
But never fear, I will be back shortly. : )

Of course, maybe drink some coffee... Scare the sick away, haha
I have quite the love affair with coffee... I am reserved with it, take special care with it, but when I am dead, will it still be there...? Hah, loved this, an ode' to the greatness, indeed... With caffeine this was penned...

Laughed all the way through your tribute, salivating I was because am not ashamed to say that i'm
addicted to 'Coffee in all its Dark Splendour'!!!

Apart from the superb subject matter, you've laid a great display, used great phrases and made a sleepy reader feel more awake!!
