I thought this was so daft that I wasn’t going to post it, then I thought what the heck, so here it is.
Sometimes poetry has to be daft! I once wrote a sonnet based on Baskin-Robbins’ flavours of ice cream, and thought it was not worthy, but since I posted it, it’s ended up being my most-commented poems. This one is perfectly in that set of poems to enjoy along with the best of Mr. Lear!

I am a fan of coffee, and especially coffee time! Even on a hot day, still drink it hot! People laugh sometimes, but I don’t care, please pour me another cup of that delicious brew.

🙂 This is neat, Viv. I’ve done that with my name, Jim, way back before the word, Googlism, was invented. I had to take the top 20 in two posts.
I just finished my own coffee and am about to head off to bed. Mrs. Jim was finishing her e-book and now is getting a new one from our library. I posted and read MSN news clips while waiting for her. We had a little snack with coffee. It’s just to turn to 3:00 AM now.

Coffee time is my whole working day… Sacrosanct is the best word to describe it, I think! And now, I want a coffee… But I have been awake for 32 minutes, so I’m long overdue… 🙂

When working at Newcastle University – 10.30 coffee time was a staff room ritual. So much was learnt in that half hour of chat and I loved the kit kats! Sally

ELEVENSES is certainly sacrosanct.
Time for a smackerel and a sit-down with caffeine.
BTW, I have just discovered the cold-fusion method, [ brewing coffee totally without any form of heat, so that there is no bitterness at all]. Tastes fabulous.
