Poetry

Ode To Starbucks

Great Mecca of caffeine addicts

Your green shining beacon permeates through sleepy eyelids

The scent of your decadent sustenance uplifts weary souls

You accept the tired, the perky, and the terminally trendy into your walls

None are turned away from the gloriously sugary beverages you produce

The melody of grinding beans and whirring blenders is music to my ears

For you, you are my haven

A respite from the rest of the non-coffee related world

A wondrous cavern filled to the brim with earth tones and comfortable seating,

Free Wi-fi and reasonably priced lattes, delicious pastries and cold frappuccinos

We flock to you, O great giver of delight

We bend to your will, and gracefully stop ordering discontinued syrups

Have mercy on us, for we seek only to feel caffeinated and trendy

Allow us to continue to congregate in your café,

For we would surely perish without thee.
