Coffee & poetry ~

 Aroused by the wafting aroma of coffee,

    & the tête-à-tête 

of poetry's hummingbird lyrics,

           unfolding like symphony's origami

persuasive satisfaction of my heart's intention

   creativity's desire surging as each word prances

across the pages of interchangeable divine thoughts

      symbiotic splendor whirls in meditative sentiments

          within entity's contemplative dreaming tumult,

an iambic foot of rhythm's hypnotic control

     wandering in poesy's contentment

     satisfying the restless gypsy's urges,

sweet inspiration's prolific rhyme unfurling

    in the synergistic dance of collective harmony

Coffee and poetry. My two favorite things. Amazing description my friend.
"an iambic foot of rhythm's hypnotic control
wandering in poesy's contentment
satisfying the restless gypsy's urges,"
Nice to know the feeling the contentment of pen and paper with the good taste of coffee near. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Coffee goes great with poetry

[Shadow Paradox]

Yup this definitely sounds like an explosion of inspiration. Caffeine, and ink and a creative mind mix well together. Beautiful enlightening jewel you've penned.

I certainly like it when a poet uses words that I never would, mixed with many that I do. You caught my attention with 'Wafting' which is a favorite word of mine as in "Sunlight splashing through the wafting leaves, reaching the ground as dust drops."

Love this poem. " wandering in poesy's contentment
satisfying the restless gypsy's urges," was my favorite part. keep writing!

While I do enjoy coffee, I rarely drink it... I am more about tea, I drink so much tea, and hundreds of varieties (my tea cabinet is better stocked than my refrigerator and pantry combined...) But with that said, I can totally dig the idea of having coffee to help the mind flow a bit sharper. When you get a chance, I recommend checking out the writer 'Elwyn' on this site; they are another free-verse poet. They don't use many impressive words or metaphors, but the way their writing flows is sublime imo. They also write ALOT about coffee; thus why I brought it up!

What a way to start the day hm? Get the creative juices flowing early and you know you will be spinning masterpieces out the whole day. That is how I imagine you come up with so many wonderful works so quickly. I wish I liked coffee. I love the smell, but the taste just doesn't work for me.

OMG. This is soooooooo good. I must say that I really love your lingo. Its really calming and soothing. It really sets a great atmosphere of the effect and both coffee and poetry has on the human mind.
