I agree with Laurennn. In my opinion this poem tell us thatwhen we are in love and we are with the person we´re in love with is better and more happier than drinking a thousand of good cups of coffee.

Very good! Congratulations! In few words you said what we lovers are afraid of saying in front of the person we love!

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.

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.”
