Lazy Coffee

ah, another morning
sitting down to write
just sneezed on my paper
must be a sign
I wrote something right
but wait!
I haven't written anything!
oh, come on coffee
start to work your magic
or I swear I'll fire you
and hire tea!
to be left idealess
is oh so tragic
don't make me bend
your little beans
over my authoritative knee!
I hired you to do a job
so quit being lazy, coffee!
now apologize to pen and paper
and get your butt to work for me!!!!

Cute poem. Coffee as you write, tea for when you edit, with a nap in-between. :) - Wesley C.

Your intro notes made me smile Christy .. I never drink beer and rarely coffee so I need tea to get my muse into gear and then shes a stroppy mare and still misbehaves like a temperamental teenager lol:-) hugs jan xx

Thank you, Jan. Your comment made me smile. I think every poet has something beautiful and profound to share with the world. I think every poem has value. I want to show that each poet is a unique individual and has a unique process. I want to encourage the next generation by putting out both my best and my worst. I've talked to a young poet recently who thinks he can only write when he's drunk or high, so I wanted to show drink doesn't matter, your soul is what matters. I just wanted to make a joke this morning.
