With a blog name like oncoffee, you know it is incumbent on me to have regular posts on coffee. Here is a love song to coffee from john voelz.
In the morning, I taste you on my lips
I draw you close, you tell me it’s all right
And when I’m on the road, you’re with me like I’ve never left home
And you keep me satisfied through the night
You’ve never asked a single thing from me
Even though I don’t have to, I’d pay for your company
You’ve seen the worst of me at times but you stay right by my side
It sounds funny but you’re just my cup of tea
You go by many names but your scent
no matter what they say is sweet
You’re driving me insane
and you give shakes from my head to my feet.
I cannot get enough, of you, and I know it sounds cliché
But you quite literally fill my cup and warm me up
You’re my dark beauty, and you’ve always bean
And when the Irish in you comes out, I just smile
And something’s brewing in me, so I think I’ll take a shot
And tell you in a song I like your style
How can I espress---oooohhhh how you make me a different man?
You’re stirring something in me, a latte people just don’t understand
An inner strength, you gently stand your ground
You gather friends and spread the laughter ‘round
And when morning is a grind, you sooth my troubled mind
You whisper French-pressed, softly calm me down
You go by many names but your scent
no matter what they say is sweet
You’re driving me insane
and you give shakes from my head to my feet.
I cannot get enough, of you, and I know it sounds cliché
But you quite literally fill my cup and warm me up

Reminds me of the time I had no 'home away from home.' In a land of coffee bean exports, Ecuador. I was forced to suck back instant coffee and Coca-Cola to drown my homesickness. I had access to real, ground coffee 10% of the time, and access to 10% cream, 0% of the time. It was a hard time. I'm happy to discover your blog : )
