Coffeehouse Bar Stewardess Poem by nimal dunuhinga

Coffeehouse Bar Stewardess

Rating: 5.0


She blooms in the morning like a coffee flower.
I like that rare flavor and I peep there frequently.
I sit on a bar stool and wait for her to bring my elixir.
When I sip that with a straw I feel like getting more courage
To fight with the Devil's day.
I have been in one evening but she wasn't there and the following morning too.
I gossiped and verified that she already left the place for better prospects.
Since that gloomy day the coffee tasted me bitter like rusty life
And sometimes I drink without a straw.
I scribble on the table mat with a pencil stub.
Let the tricky life turns into a fairy tale to you!

This is a charming poem, Nimal. I know how important coffee is and how devastating is its loss. Your coffeehouse bar stewardess sounds comely and worthy your love. Pity she has disappeared and with her, all your joy. Your first line sets off the poem to perfection. The rest follows easily and enchantingly. Definitely one of your best. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
