FEBRUARY HOMEWORK ...STIMULATED

I chose to write about the colour brown as in Coffee since my days start and end with it - and without it nothing gets done ...Nothing!!!

The cream and brown swirls of the sweet cappuccino
cling onto the mug , with the chocolates sweet drift
of flavour, dark brown , rich and decadent - moreish
its scent tantalizes - I drink it down swift.
The caramel colour of sweet cappuccino
capped with grated chocolate caresses your tongue
with a bitter sweetness - it's the perfect balance
of fresh brewed espresso, steamed milk and frothed foam.
A milky moustache coats my top lip from slurping ...
my tongue surreptitiously creeps out to roam,
and lasciviously lick every drop from my lips and
I order another to go - to take home.
Oh how I delight in the taste of fresh coffee.
And who doesn't fancy a cup of fresh Jo.
That's why there are coffee shops seems on most corners
in cities worldwide where the commuters go.
The world seems is fuelled by the power of caffeine
and dollars change hands in a glittering display.
We whinge and we whine when the price of fuel surges,
but for daily coffee we're willing to pay
Does a lover's kiss give immeasurable pleasure?
Do sweet juicy strawberries our cravings end?
The closest to caffeine is its neighbour chocolate
who also stirs cravings that most comprehend.
Coffee is addictive, likewise love and chocolate
and heroin - they trap and capture - befriend.
I've no shortage of want power - no won't power - just weakness.
An imperfect person with no urge to defend.
