Coffee Beans

Coffee beans, a world in a grain, Roasted and ground, a caffeinated refrain. Born in the tropics, where the sun meets the shade, A journey unfolds from bush to brewed cascade. In the highland realms where the arabica dreams, And the robusta thrives by mountain streams, Emerald hills with leaves of green, Cradle the cherries, a ruby sheen. Harvesters toil under the sun's warm kiss, Gently plucking the beans, pure coffee bliss. Hand in hand with the seasons they dance, A delicate choreography, nature's romance. From the fields, the beans embark on a quest, To the roaster's chamber, where flavors manifest. The symphony of crackles, a transformation in heat, Awakening aromas, a sensory feat. Medium, dark, or a blonde delight, The roaster's art shapes the beans' flight. Aromas unfurl, as flavors entwine, In a fragrant journey, both robust and fine. Grinding whispers echo in the morning air, As anticipation rises, a ritual to declare. Into the press or the espresso machine, The grounds prepare for their aqueous sheen. Brewing, a ballet of water and bean, A liquid alchemy, a potion unseen. Espresso, pour-over, or a steaming cup, A daily elixir, waking spirits up. In coffee shops bustling, a caffeinated hum, Baristas crafting creations, a skillful strum. Latte art blooms, a canvas of cream, A masterpiece fleeting, in each sip's gleam. Coffee beans, a humble seed's legacy, A ritual, a culture, a worldwide legacy. In each fragrant cup, a story unfolds, A journey in every sip, as the coffee beholds.
