The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

The Coffee House

The day he took me to Starbucks I figured I was gaining in luck Then all he did was complain How the coffee wasn't humane It wasn't fit for human comsumption The tasty treat was dry, their gumption In serving such unpalatable treat Oh well, another date now unsweet Starbucks I still love you even though Have to get decaffeinated coffee drink slow
Nathan thanks for the challenge Contest: Coffee House

Congrats on your win, Sara, with this cute write! Starbucks is my one weaknesses. Their chai latte is to die for! It's an expensive habit, but one I cannot give up. Love and Blessings, Rhonda

ONe of my favorite subjects and drinks, dear Sara. Some folks can't survive life unless they can complain. I never complain about my Starbucks. Love, daver

Hi Sara, I enjoyed reading your coffee poem too. I don't drink coffee, so I chose the one caffeine related drink I really like. But I try not to drink many diet cokes either, because of the dang aspartamine. I sure wish they used Splenda or stevia!!
