The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

A Cup of Coffee Please

A cup of coffee please
Cappuccino
Latte
Unknown
What's the additions
Coffee O, no addition
With creamer
With milk
With sugar
With Milo
What's  the difference
Plain bitter
Less sweet
Sweet
Mixed
And what will you ask for life
Sweet, sweetest, never bitter of course
You can prepare your own coffee
To your flavours
With a coffee maker maybe
All the ways to please yourself
But life is different
You only enjoy a cup of coffee
During leisure
You would numb yourself with a cup of coffee
During disappointments
And maybe coffee is the only friend
That always understands your feelings

Such a fascinating observation in the last two lines, Sai Lin. I think that coffee understands me way better than any housepet possibly could!! Enjoy! ~ Gershon
