COFFEE

A cup of coffee to start my day

the cool breeze weathers deep 

into my soul of long ago ...

My mind tells me not today 

we are going to have a brighter day

while I sip on another cup...

Oh, how I am starting to wake up

I have a smile upon my face

and now I am ready to start my day 

thank you, Coffee,

I will always need you.
