Coffee, Black with Sugar…

In the morning to awaken,

Through out the day to stay alert,

In the evening, just before five,

To make it to my last stop,

Then home to stay alive…

Is this not an addiction?

I would call it so, my doctor’s prediction,

Not any of this would be fiction,

Happy that drinking coffee and driving,

Cannot be considered, as of yet, for a conviction…

Plenty of sleep the prior night,

Could spell the end for coffee during the daylight,

Caffeine the main ingredient, still to be found in soda as well,

But nothing can awaken me late day,

Like the amounts of caffeine in a cup of coffee, so I say…
