Percolate
Born in the Sun
Saved from Birds – Red Blue and Yellow
The humble little coffee bean
is a hardy fellow
Grown in the warmth
of a plantation
with 50,000,000
brothers and sisters
picked from its parent
it travels for miles
travelling in bags
with no room to smile
asked to improve
the heated aqua
and roasted within
an inch of its life
Life force captured
in three sizes of cup
and then the final insult
the drop of milk and sugar
