Almost every day I take coffee break at the Artful Dodger here in Regina, Saskatchewan. It has a great vibe for writing poetry. I finally earned my free stamp card beverage. "What can I get for free?" "a coffee or tea" "Maybe mocha or cappuccino?" "I guess" This is what they made for me. It was perfect. I was inspired enough to try a 'Rondel' which I first thought sounded like a singer from a 50's girl group. Here goes.
Taster's Choice
You can taste a soul
By the taste of their coffee
Sweet bitter strong or spicy
Dark plain skim or whole
Some are works of art in a generous bowl
or a goodwill Styrofoam you only drink for free
You can taste a soul
By the taste of their coffee
Some share their warm maple pecan cinnamon roll
Alternative lifestyles drink healthy green tea
Opening the eyes of your heart is the key
If you want to make open friendships your goal
You can taste a soul
