COVERT CONVERSATION

I see my love, drawing near
He's carrying two drinks
Suspicion begins ascent
He perceives, and speaks

"I brought your favorite drink"

"I don't like chocolate"

"Oh, my sweet, this isn't chocolate...it's MOCHA
    .....and this MOCHA is from Columbia"

This unexpected JOY bursts forth
Like a  fairy being birthed out of a flower

"You see, I would cross the Ocean just to bring 
You MOCHA from Columbia"

...refreshment for a weary soul
