Sitting under the cerulean sky
Gazing at the twinkling stars
I see
Time flies
Like a butterfly.
When the wind caresses my face
I feel every bit of its pace.
As my eyes looked at him
The aroma entering my nostrils
Removes the negativity of mind,
Feeds me enthusiasm,
And awaken the inner spirit.
How good it would be
If I’m bittersweet?
All my chaos vanishes away
When I sip you
My dear coffee.
