Fresh Coffee?

Goldfinch60



“Do you want a coffee?”

I ask my Mrs.

“Yes please, decaff please”

So I grind the Colombian beans

And put them into the filter

To make my glorious brew.

And I get the jar from the cupboard

Filled with the Devils work;

As I put the granules in the cup

My hand slips

And the coffee goes over the floor.

So I get the hand hoover,

And suck the stuff up.

As the granules weren’t used

I then put them into her cup.

Surely the dust from the floor

Would enhance the flavour

Of this invidious brew!

      Waste not want not I always say. Couldn't be worse than that high priced coffee from monkey dropping's. Another fun read

      • Goldfinch60

        Thank you soren, very true. I have tried most coffees but never the one from monkey droppings as you say it is much too expensive.

              You could even call it Hoover's Brew. ☕😉

              • Goldfinch60

                Well that finally settles that then Dr Crippen. I've decided not to take up your visit invite. Now while your victims seem to be women, the three glasses of red coloured Laphroaig you offered me the other day did trigger some concern......

                • Goldfinch60

                  I do drink fine red wine as well Dave, so I could offer you that as well as Laphroaig.

                  Made me smile!

                  • Goldfinch60

                    If I made you smile John, my job was successful.
