Cup of Coffee

One cup of coffee makes an idea 

The ingredients are the recipes for making it  

The cup of coffee 

As I poured in two teaspoons of sugar, 

I wonder how I could mimic that cup 

My face lit up! What an interesting idea 

I grabbed the cocoa powder and took 

Two and a half spoonfuls of it 

Into the coffee and sip 

My eyes squinted. Too bitter 

And dark. I added some milk 

And sip. Better but still acidic 

I reached for the sugar and added 

One into my drink 

Good. Progress was being made.  

But this cup needed something else 

My face lit up, and I dashed into 

The pantry and caught my mother's  

Hot chocolate mix. I pouted one tablespoon 

Of it into the coffee 

Yes, yes this is delightful 

How the scent melted into my mouth 

Just my cup of coffee
