Welcome To Starbucks
Flavor Out Of This World
The first thing that we’d do, as you step onto the scene
Is grab a cup of coffee from the vending machine
Not just any joe, but, the best of the stuff
A New Iced Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken, from Starbucks
See, it’s autumn here on earth, and the one thing we love
Is getting close to nature, wearing sweatshirts and gloves
Sitting by a fire, with some cinnamon spice
Iced lattes are a treat, making fall feel nice
We’d take our local brew and head back down to the lake
Share some fresh baked muffins that my grandmother baked
Listen to the music, like the leaves in the trees
The real things that make life down here, as good as it seems
Over at the stadium, we’ll watch our favorite team
Duke it out and fill us with those old college dreams
Learning that there is more to life than just what we see
You’re proof that there is life out there in our galaxies

My favorite season is fall, so I was loving this so much!! Made me so happy this morning :) Congrats on Top Story!
This feels really whimsical and fun - I really enjoyed it. Plus the rhythm and flow are really smooth!

Alien or not, but gives me the feeling and tastes of fall.
Well done!
Whoaaaa this was awesome! I wish I was an alien! Lol
<3
Do we have to be an alien visiting from outer space to get in on some of this fun?
🤣Great one, Kelli ❤️👽👌💭
Superb Starbucks!!! Love this, Kelli!!!❤️❤️💕
This is wonderful. Love it!
A really sweet poem!
Well done. I think I need a cup of coffee now! (BTW: Is that alien doing his best George Costanza impersonation? And I think it is ironic that none of the figures have hands.)
Nice one Kelli, makes me want some Starbucks.
