POETRY | Coffee? by Anuradha Chelliah

POETRY | Coffee? by Anuradha Chelliah

Share this article via


Shall we have coffee?
Americanos, espressos, cappuccinos
Macchiatos, lattes, mochas
Brewed – specially and cold
Blended coffee, cream, juice – frappuccinos
Tall, short, long, regular
Coconut milk, soy milk
Skimmed, full cream
Low fat. low calorie
White, brown, palm sugar, rock sugar
Coffee with toppings?
What?
Oh! anything will do…
As long as I get it
Comes with my name
Sometimes spelt wrongly
Mix-up and confusion
And the price – uh…ah…
Homemade coffee with love
In my mug on my cozy sofa
With a book on a rainy day
Is the best for
ME.
