“God within me is the enjoyer of the aroma As also this dopamine boosting flavour I taste I surrender all pleasures to the dweller of my heart Breath by breath thus that my soul presence be chaste” Whether it's perked or left to drip I drink coffee after I quip, "Cool enough not to burn my lip." Ahh... that first sip Ahh... that first sip A spoon of sugar, splash of cream Aroma woke me from a dream From the cup rises vapor steam In sunlight's gleam In sunlight's gleam My eyes savor the morning scene More than the flavor of caffein I hear songbirds as they convene Their songs serene Their songs serene I'm content after yawns and sighs Enjoying a cup at sunrise As dawn chooses to colorize Aurora skies Aurora skies I recognize God's hand in this Reminding me not to dismiss These moments as if nature's kiss A time of bliss A time of bliss My cup and sunlight keep me warm Daybreak serves as a tranquil balm Reading scripture nurtures my calm A hallowed psalm A hallowed psalm

I love coffee at any time of day, but if I wasn’t allowed that morning cup… I’d stay in bed! Delightful poem, Lin. I’m sure you’ll be up there in the winners list. Terry

Hi Terry. I'm not really a big fan of coffee. A couple of mornings a week, maybe. Don't turn into a grumpy Gus without your morning coffee. LOL Thank you for liking this one.
