I liked this poem because I love coffee and I felt that they used a great metaphor compareing someone with coffee

I love this poem. So simple, which is what makes it amazing. And it's about coffee- one of my favorite things, and something timeless and relatable. Nice job :)

Nice use of a simple thing that many people enjoy, coffee.  While it is an acquired taste, I think everyone can realize the meaning behind it, even if they aren't particularly fond of the taste themselves.

 

:) look forward to more of your works

In case you were unclear.

 

While this is a poem, it is also a haiku.

Haiku are most commonly said to have 17 syllables.  In traditional Japanese haiku however, it is 17 moras.  I quote, a mora is “Something of which a long syllable consists of two and a short syllable consists of one.”

i dont like that sunshine12 put such harsh feedback. ive gotten lots of that before and it only makes you stop writing for weeks it took me a long time to start writing again; even longer to share with others, i was afraid others would read it and scoff like the other haters out there; if you dont like it; keep your mouth closed because other people do.
