A Cup Of Cappuccino Poem by Sulaiman Mohd Yusof

A Cup Of Cappuccino

Rating: 4.5


Medium heat showers at six in the morning
Freshen me up with that needed zest
Vitalizing me to face another day
The flow of water sounds like waterfalls
Pinnacles of a bathroom
Smells of hygiene everywhere
Shampoos, creamy soaps and aftershave lotions
What a day to start your motion


Back to my room
It’s like a routine; I’d know which band of clothes to choose
Soaking cologne to my body is a boost
Enhancing your confidence
And be more prudent
My wet look
Would make women get hooked

After doing my routine, I step out of the front door
Grabbing the morning newspaper from the lawn
Back to the living room
A delightful aroma of the best natural coffee
Penetrates my nostrils
My brain sends signals to my body
'Be ready for energy and vitality'
I sit down in the kitchen
Reading the headlines and checking my schedule
I pick up the cup on the table
My passion is tested
I deeply inhale
The first sip could expand your blood vessels
After the next sips
I could feel the blood rush
My heart was beating faster
Like a conga beat

The caffeine with a dropp of chocolates
Driving me to a roller coaster ride
That is what I need
To face the world
Get a cup of coffee
Get a Cappuccino
Don’t say no
You’ll know

Nice and neat, a cup of Java. Is that nearby? Oh, but I take mine strong and black. Milk is for babies and calves, unless you're a goat, a lamb or a colt. I'm gonn'a make some coffee-a bientot.

Yum! Your poem sounds delicious. I've read many other poems of yours but I'm in a hurry. My mum's calling me so I quickly commented on one. I'm new on poem hunters but I think that poetry was born in you, you're a natural. I love the use of vocab. i've written only one and you,144! ahh! I'm definitely astonished.please read my poem about anger. P.S: I'm only an innocent eleven year old.

A vivid description of a normal morning...something we would called yet another day, which has been spiced up by the Cup of Cappuccino, makes me want to drink coffee now, :))
