Morning Jolt

caffeine

By Margaret BrennanPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Morning Jolt

Just put an IV in my arm,

And fill it with caffeine.

My eyes will be the widest

That you have ever seen.

I need a jolt of coffee

To start my day off right.

A cup before I go to bed?

Won’t keep me up at night!

I drink a pot throughout the day;

It sure does keep me going.

I race around; my heart gets pumped –

Without me even knowing.

A whiff of fresh ground coffee beans

Titillates my brain.

Where’s the pot? Oh, where’s my cup –

Before I go insane?

I need a cup of coffee,

Lest from my mouth, I foam.

I’ll go and put a fresh pot on –

And stop this silly poem.
