My Last Cup of Coffee

My prompts for today were the words sweet, chocolate, indulgence and sugar. I struggled with this, but as I sit on my couch with the Coffitivity app playing in my headphones, it came to me. I hope you enjoy it.

Murmured voices break the silence

To my right

a cute couple clink

their wine glasses together

in a celebratory toast.

Off to the left,

an older gentleman

engages an old-ish lady

in whispered conversation.

I’m guessing he’s whispering

sweet nothings to his bride.

The well dressed young man

standing at the bar

survey’s the crowd,

looking restless.

He seems to be waiting

for…

Ah, that beautiful girl

that just walked in.

Her eyes light up,

his face breaks into

a big smile.

I love the ambience

of this old place.

Red carpets,

dim lights,

candles flickering in

every direction.

My time here is

almost done.

I only need

some sugar

for this last

cup of coffee.
