Oh, Espresso, we praise you!
We kneel before the machine.
In awe of this ambrosia, this caffeine!
Oh, Espresso, giver of life, conqueror of sleep—
Our saviour at midterms when we must dig deep.
Oh, Espresso, our morning star, and afternoon routine,
Almighty, omnipotent, sacred bean!...

“Boom Boom – Double Espresso” 

Boom boom – double espresso 
mourning morning
dark nights light me up

Thy lips of espresso gold,
convey to me, 
your desperado untold.

Thine eyes for your own,
merriest of forbidden
pleasures, 
to hold.

Your supple smile upon
thine own,
reveal.

Amidst only
to conjure,
to conceal.

Parlay, if I may,
to implore
the keenest sense
of your fulfillment,
I adore.

Gently now, our merriment. . .
embarking upon salutation.
No more our desire,
of infatuation?...

Ever easy endow
Nurture next niche now


Poignant pleasing proof
Timely tasty truth


Coffee cuppa choice
Pickup piquant poise


Warm wavy whiffs whirl
Sample sensuous swirls


Bitter brown brew bites
Cocoon crafty cites


Time to think today
Plot primes private play


Worthwhile words wander
Thrilling thoughts thunder


Grapple gaudy gloom
Bloom bright blossoms bloom!

In a swift flow
Old times catch-up,
Three in a row
Espresso cups.


Queen Street unfurls
With simple flair,
We sit and curl
Sift old time airs.


Old days discuss
With ample wit,
A meal to buzz
As fancy hits.


Two score and six
Years blown away,
A motley...

A brown brew here
To lift the blur
Of atmosphere
In double spur


A bitter touch 
That hurls new form
That's more than much
In fragrant norm


A moment then
To compact zest
From weary when
To highs that fest


A gulp of swirl
Of espresso
That curls and twirls
Fond momento


A spark of ease
When gall tastes best
In taste...

In Florence, if you need a lift
Assistance is easy and swift.
Espresso - 3 sips -
Will not go to your hips
But will perk you - it's Italy's gift.

It gives you that jolt you require
When energy drains make things dire.
One strong little cup
Helps to pick you right...

Morning thunder grips
Shock awakening
A fragrant brew flips
Cuppa brown brew sings


Wet wet morning rain
Misty drowning feel
An aqueous deep pain
Drawing close to heal


Clash of lightning strokes
Thunder claps most loud
Freezing feelings yoke
Bad weather speaks proud


Such poignant strands here
Cheer drains with downpour
Cold and wet makes clear
Water floods some more


Cuppa...

Blurry feeling
Sleepy eyes here
Teary blinking
Drowsy touch steers


Ritual being
Dawn flings messy
Cause becoming
Awkward crazy


Footsteps shaky
Sleepy touch grinds
Stupor queries
Espresso finds


Brown black siesta
Drowsy eyes gaze
A wild fiesta
For cuppa craze

Caffeine fix squeeze
In morning breeze 
Moves happy sneeze


Oomph in a drink
On odd verge brink
Beyond mere think


Sleepy eyes droop
Or else recoup
In lame regroup


Drowsy feel drowns
Such frigid frown
In brew black-brown


Caffeine fix plays
Hurl of new day
Now on the way


Brew in a gist
Can thus enlist
In floating brisk
