"That First Sip"
by Sunnyone

There's something about...
that first sip of coffee,
that makes the whole morning seem right!
The smell of it perking, awakens desire,
to wash away tastes of the night...

You groggily stumble from bedroom to kitchen,
and pick up your faithful old cup...
The heavenly liquid is hot,
and you know has the power
to wake you right up!

While some drink with sugar,
and others add cream,
there's many addicted to black...
No matter your preference,
that first sip of coffee is heaven...
We know that's a fact!

You sit on the sofa with warm brew in hand,
letting steam blaze moist trails on your face...
With eyes closed in yearning,
and lips slightly open,
You're eager...
To claim that first taste...

Your anticipation has heightened your taste buds,
and now you can sample your brew...
That first sip is magic,
and others will follow...
Until that first cup is all through...

No matter how many cups you will imbibe,
as you work, as you rest, as you play...
That very first sip that you relish
each morning,
is perfection...
To start out your day!!
