I like my coffee Like I like my man Black Strong Robust Full of flavor Lively Deep Vibrant Hot Steamy With more caffeine Than a drug dealer That wakes my senses And brings me alive I like my coffee Like I like my man Exotic Addictive Potent Lingering in my thoughts Long after the initial introduction Sturdy Balanced With definition And variety Chameleon like Having the ability To blend in any environment Yet never looses it originality Nor its essence I like my coffee Like I like my man Giving me the “lift” I need To make it through the day Under any circumstance So addictive, that I find myself Wanting…..needing Just a taste of him Several times a day I like my coffee Like I like my man First thing in the morning After a shower And sometimes before To “wake” up my senses And bring me alive To journey on my way Black Strong Robust Vibrant Yeah...... That’s how I like him .
If I were a Word I’d want to be made love to I’d want to be stroked and caressed If I were a Word I’d want to be thought about carefully Not used in ignorance or mischief But for wisdom and love I’d want to be strong, fierce Powerful Like a fire that ceases to burn I’d want to leave them yearning for more If I were a Word I'd want to inspire and encourage Last as an eternal thought Having meaning and purpose If I were a Word I’d want to be understood Believed Conceived And Forever on the tongues of Poets If I were a Word I’d want to be scribed As an hieroglyphic On the ancient walls Of time As an emblem on the papyrus Of consistency If I were a Word I’d want to be holy And sacred Like life given to a new born baby The Light The gateway To everlasting life If I were a Word I’d be creation And manifestation of all things living I’d want to be like the permanent marker That can not be erased, eradicated, nor removed From the heart. If I were a Word I’d want wings like birds and unicor
