Coffee cup, my coffee cup I love thee,
You fill me up with caffeinated tea.
You are the sunshine that starts my morning,
And wakes me from my moment’s forlorning.
You certainly are what brightens my days
When the clouds obscure all of the sun’s rays.
And when the moon replaces the sun I
Hold your handle like the hand of a guy.
As the sun travels in the vast blue sky
I turn to coffee to keep me awake.
And in the cold, the time for cocoa is neigh,
And of course there is always room for cake.
You will always be the one I turn to
For my daily dose of that special brew.

Favorite Quote:
"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
