Something Hot Today
I am not surprised at what I see.
The outside tables at the café are empty.
Despite its reputation of being the best in the city.
To entrepreneurs, it does not look pretty.
You probably think the place does lousy business.
The winter is having a lot to do with this.
For a southern city, it is unusually cold.
The temperature affects both the young and old.
To sit outside, not many are very bold.
Sitting outside today would not be nice;
especially when the drinks have a lot of ice.
Inside is where we both have to go.
Would you like coffee, a latte, or cappuccino?
On the menu, you see selections are a lot.
Today, it is a good idea to drink something hot.
