I'm sorry Cafe, I've been away

I'm sorry Cafe, I've been away

A Poem by Rosa Carlyle-Mitchell
"

A justification of my pending return to this lovely site.

"
Sorry about my absence!
I've really missed you folk. 
Yes, when I say I do apologise
it's the antithesis of 'joke'.

I've been travelling the world
into which we've all be  hurled. 
Four countries I have seen
and well delighted I have been. 

London struck me down
as it's a public transport town,
which confuses me to death!
I was permanently out of breath. 

Dublin, ah yes Publin!
In much Guinness I be dabblin. 
For beauteous moors on the coast
God deserves a bloody toast. 

Berlin: an exquisite city
as the decrepit's not a pity.
Old buildings stained by spray
recall all that the bold do say. 

Then Switzerland and cheese
I found myself easy to please. 
They were cocoa, love-filled weeks
of which I'd not make any tweaks. 

I lament the conclusion of my trip
because reality is harder to grip.
My life has never homed such an epoch;
Sometime's I want to turn back the clock.
