Hot Java

I read at the 9th Annual Ladies Poetry Night on Tuesday, September 18. The poems I read were all new and written in responses to prompts. My mother also read at that event.

At the reJAVAnate the large coffee is called a Java Junkie. I like that name for a large cup of coffee. The large cup Mom and I ordered was Cafe Mocha. That's our favorite type of coffee, when we go to coffee houses. I don't always order a Cafe Mocha, but last night was special. It's the first poetry reading either Mom or I read in, at least, the last six or eight months.

One of the poems I read was Caffeine Withdrawal. I've written at least two poems about going without coffee for several days or even weeks. I've also written several poems about drinking coffee. In fact, I think I'll do a little research on coffee and caffeine and write another poem.
