coffee
I close my eyes and breathe in that heady scent - full body, rich, warm. My nose dips down but my lips cannot help but steal a sip, for the nose has tempted them. A sip it is! Such a subtle sweetness, round and complete Spreading across the sides of my tongue Until bright sunlit notes marry the true earthy depths that dare to emerge. As I let the lingering finish dawdle, until lazily departing, I reopen my eyes, meeting yours.
