Playing with Kwansaba: NPM24 Day 16

Today Dave over at #verselove introduced me to a new poetry format called Kwansaba. This format depends of sevens: seven lines, each line with seven words, all words seven letters or less, and the poem should be one of praise. (For more details read the #verselove post linked above) Here is my attempt:

Sing a Song of Coffee

Magic morning elixir in my pink cup

portals me from sleep into my day

with smells of earth that ground me

drip drop gurgle, music to my ears

first sip…aah hot dark melted amber

Jolts. Brings energy into clear present focus

never you mind that it is decaf 🙂
