Three Haiku In Praise Of Coffee

(My childless, tea-drinking self from years ago would never believe I wrote this.)

Long night, baby cries
I pull up to the drive thru
“Welcome to Starbucks”

Eyes sting from no sleep
“Grande iced mocha with whip”
Mom’s Little Helper

Bitter chocolate taste
I’m addicted to mocha
Sweet caffeine mistress

  5. Slackermommy says

    That’s great! I can remember those long sleepless nights. Caffeine is about the only thing that gets you through.

  6. Yummy. I have a Starbucks gift card just waiting for the first day of school….

  7. Mom of a munchkin says

    These made me smile! I am the same way. I was a hard core tea drinker only before the birth of my baby…now a Grande Mocha Frap is like a good shot of speed.

  8. I know I’m probably the only woman on the planet who doesn’t drink coffee. But, maybe a poem for tea? Maybe?

    This speaks to me. If you want it extra strong, ask for a mocha frappucino affogato-style.

  10. Can you believe that there is no effing starbucks drive through in Toronto? Imagine THAT haiku.

  11. Simple Panache says

    From one Starbucks lover to another.. I hear ya sista! LOL.. My addiction is the Iced Venti Caramel Machiatto. I have yet to try the iced Mocha. 🙂

    There was a coffee shop at Pennsic that had wonderful mocha ices… ah….

  13. Ahhhh gotta love coffee! I will repeat your poems as I pour myself my first cup of the morning.
