An Ode to my Iced Coffee

(I had to add this one in. It just was so fitting.)

On this humid icky day
after dragging myself from my bed,
groggy and sticky, I found myself
drawn to your goodness.

I considered putting you in a mug,
but it didn't seem right.
So over the ice you went,
tumbling and crackling.

Then a dash of York peppermint creme
to top off your deliciousness.
Just a touch, just enough
to turn your color a chilly tan.

When I brought you to my lips,
oh the wonders, oh the dreams.
You were perfect, my companion
to my work desk, my friend.

That swirl of hazelnut fudge
touched off with a taste of mint
and so chilly on this hot day,
You are perfect.
