The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Percolated Coffee

From sleep to wake she mutters.
Her mind stalls, mumbled words she stutters.
The walls guide her down their dim lit hall.
It is but a crawl, as her coffee does call.
No automatic drip, no self-timed event.
Morning ritual, to her time well spent. 
From beginning to end, that old coffee pot.
Guarantees , that her java stays hot. 
So, before her day starts, there is one thing for sure.
She will always partake, of her percolated, coffee, cure.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
