I ordered a Mocha Latte
Best coffee to have
It’s hot chocolate milk with coffee
Decided to order ‘soup of the day’
And be surprised.
Grabbed the newspaper; The Sun
Took little notice of the front page
And turned straight to the horoscopes
Aquarius? Ah...
Get distracted by ‘Hagar the Horrible’
Makes me laugh
Anyway, Aquarius?
“The moon shines a revealing light on your love life and you see different side of a partner...”
Dream on!
Never actually says when this will happen.
Swift shiver down my spine
As thunder cracks outside
And rain bounces down
Beating the pavement
And beating anyone stuck outside
I smile; at least it’s not me.
My soup arrives; mmm...
Leek & potato!
The steam and sweet smell of leek rises upwards
And fills my nostrils with warmth
The first sip and I’m in heaven
I can feel the warmth tingle my whole body
And for only £1.50, this is the best soup I’ve had.
The rain begins to come down harder
And it sounds like a constant beating drum solo
Never to stop...
...And then, silence!
I carrying on eating and reading the newspaper,
“Mercury gets into a tricky position in your own sign, allowing lots of time for important journeys”
What? Important Journeys? Why do I read this crap?
The thunder cracks again
But it is far in the distance
A friend walks through the door
Wet from head to toe
With a small pool collecting at her feet
I can do nothing but laugh
And ask, “Do you want a coffee?”
