Who Wants Coffee

If fans are twirling,

It’s too hot for coffee,

But the swirling air

Matches swirls of milk

And a lazy day 

on the patio slab. 

 

If bees are buzzing,

It’s to late for a mug,

But the humming insects

Create a hunger for muffins 

Butter, honey,  and a steaming

Brew at the kitchen table. 

 

If the dinner is over

Plates hog the placemats

A suggestion of dessert 

Is greeted with a groan, 

But who wants coffee?

Is never turned down.
