No Coffee

NO COFFEE Lurch! One eye Is it time? The clock says yes Clock can go to hell! Then I detect the smell The ultimate aroma Staggering into the kitchen Well what on earth? It’s not our coffee Wife is still in bed window open

Was it wafting from a neighbor's kitchen, Daver? Don't drink coffee but got a good laugh picturing you getting out of bed early only to find the coffee was brewing elsewhere! Fun poem, old friend. Love, Carolyn

Dear Dave, thanks for your comment on my poem. Someday I may post another. : ) I laughed at your last poem, “No Coffee,” and understood your frustration. If Bev likes to sleep in, why don’t you learn how to make coffee yourself? Love, Amy.
