My morning coffee may appear mundane
My tastes never vary and remain the same
Black with a bit of Stevia fills my cup, absolutely fine
Others whisper, “He drinks boring black every time”
A dozen years ago, coffee seldom came my way
But, my better half changed my tastes one day
Now, one cup will never satisfy this urge
My caffeine addiction, never to be purged
Even though humdrum, black coffee tastes great
I can appreciate preferences many others taste
My father turns his coffee into a tasty milkshake
Adding flavored creamer and sugar, no mistake
Others search for sweet, unique flavors to add
A shot of this or that makes them awfully glad
Excuse me for a quick moment please
This poet needs a refill, so don’t tease
Never heard of a Barista until a few days ago
Their creative coffee requires much to know
Many coffee lovers appreciate special brews
Espresso, Cappuccino, Mocha to name a few
My eyes view endless coffee menus and ask
Americano, Café Latte seem like such a task
Visiting certain cafés to satisfy my caffeine fix
But always, black with sweetener does the trick

Looking for a Tim Hortons or a Starbucks
Serving simple, black coffee brings me luck
In traveling to places farther down the coffee road
Das KaffeeHaus and City Brew create it very bold
Hopefully, all of you appreciate coffee each day
Perhaps there is a favorite that comes your way
More coffee thoughts certainly do exist
But no more for now, I’m sure you insist
Your hot cup of delicious brew
May seem exhilarating to you
