National Coffee Day

Today's a holiday, but one You might not know about. It celebrates a drink I love And cannot do without. You may think beer, but you'd be wrong (Although I love that, too). The beverage that's honored Is that wake-up morning brew. Yes, coffee is the drink I mean - Addictive, strong and rich. So many folks enjoy it And we'd never ever switch. To those of you who sip your tea Or cocoa, milk or chai, I really think that coffee Is the beverage you should try. If not, a holiday for you Your calendar might show. Today, though, it is Coffee Day, So raise your cup of joe!

For most of my life tea was the beverage. About 30 years ago I started to enjoy coffee, at first mostly after a fine meal. Gradually it became the drink outside my home. Nowadays it starts my day. I drink it with cream or milk, no sugar. Thanks for posting it. / M
