Coffee Mates

I have a lot of coffee mates.
People that I meet,
When I go to the coffee shop,
And take my favourite seat.

Angels of the morning,
Serve me up my brand.
Its a little stronger,
Than most people can stand.

I.ll usually sit and write a poem.
Sometimes two or three,
Some people give me curious looks.
But that,s alright by me.

I wonder if they,d ever guess.
When they go home at night.
When they see me in the morning.
It is of them I write.

Oh, Thomas, how clever! I bet those folks never imagine you are writing about them. Very nice work! Love, Carolyn
