Conversation Over Coffee

 

The smell of French Roast

Excites my senses

For I know it means

A conversation over coffee,

Where your perceptions

Will percolate my intellect

Till my thoughts are as fresh

As the pot that just brewed.

 

So let me pour you a cup

So you can pour out your views

On human nature,

Your worldly views,

       The little things that make you happy…

Talk to me till my cup runs dry,

Just know I would rather drink cold coffee

       Than see you walk away in silence.

 

I get mesmerized

Watching your lips moving

But captivated by the words

That pass through them.

 

On that note

Shall we begin;

I got my twelve-ounce mug

Filled to the brim

And I am in the mood for sipping.
