Conversing unheard
yet the sound is a comfort
Warming like coffee

Fussy? Yes perhaps
but for me there’s no excuse
for tasteless coffee
made carelessly without soul
Listless, dull and moribund

I am a coffee lover
am quite partial to the bean
But have to say I’m spoilt
by that which comes from my machine
So absolutely gorgeous
is the flavour every day
that instant granules fade
To insignificance I’d say

In the sunshine
with coffee at the dawn of a day
One of the best ways
to start I would say

Bubbles all around
In my cup of coffee
I first saw him
Sipping the coffee
My upper lip was covered
With froth of desire.

Flat white to go
by the Thames in the sun
best way by far
that a day is begun
Watching the river
flow silently by
beneath a pale blue
and promising sky

Slope-sprung gift on hill-side planted,
Nature’s gift we take for granted.
Perform me now the spell, then quaff
The magic potion from carafe:

Response poem to S Francis’s (SailorPoet) poem In the Cafe All are welcome at the Go Dog Go Cafe
I stand getting wet in cold rain
watching through plate glass windows
edges fogged
rendering the scene inside
a soft feathered oval
Aroma of coffee
faint but distinct

She brings coffee and croissants to eat
While fat pigeons peck food at my feet
Seeking crumbs out of love
I might drop from above
As I search for her smile when we greet.

Sitting out in the sunshine in Shoreham
At Tom Foolery, mid of the day
with coffee that comes straight from heaven
watching people go on their way
This is the way to spend Friday
not really doing that much
Just sunning ourselves and passing the time
with idle chit-chat and such

Morning coffee ‘neath Art Deco
the world goes by outside
and I wonder what the towering glass
in Deansgate has to hide

Went to the barn on a nice sunny day
Had scones with apricot jam
Purchased a book I’d not read before
Took pictures of cows made of can

Late rising
Baking croissants
Hot creamy coffee
Silence is loud this morning

There are so this days
When emptiness is a yes
When ground seems so close
When the rope seems so lose
And you, you take it to the level
Where you’re the only clever
Nothings seems to care
No one seems to dare

Sitting in the drive-thru line this morning
Waiting for my turn to merge into the queue
When a young lady cut me off to go in first
And my reaction was wasn’t I here before you?

A hiss of steam, the clanking cups
The bustle of a coffee shop.

I wake and lay there
Moving slowly at first
Already thinking of you
Like a morning thirst.

You grab the first cup quickly
Is it the aroma or the taste
You tap your foot while waiting
Quickly, not a moment to waste.

Let’s start with an average day
sunglasses, scarves, sweatshirts, scenery
books, and newsprint, magazines and thick look.
Well, kindles and IPADS, laptops – usually new
smartphones,
huge minis, air, and Androids

Gentle waft of vapor in air
A hot fantasy on my lip
Aroma and taste, a lovely pair
I fly high with every sip
No morning I can miss
Without you by my side
My nerves warm as I kiss
Floating in love above the tide

Coffee and a cup serving
A lady and two men chit-chatting
A lady in pink, writing
Let me take you to my world that’s shining
Simple yet struggling
To stay awake in this early morning
Innocence and radio
Sounds from the stereo

The vapor has disappeared
From the rich dark liquid
That still sits before me
Growing colder by the minute
As the professor drones on
*
Bitter to my tongue
It may be, but does
Nothing to keep me
From slipping beneath
My lids with its inviting
Darkness and warmth
