We Sat Down for Coffee


We sat down for coffee
Do you remember when that was?
We’ve been sitting here 
Reading the news 
For ours
Seems nothing ever changes
But the Times
I’m about ready for that drink now
Don’t forget the whine

    I do enjoy wordplay. And also coffee, that leaves the whine behind... :)

      I also love coffee! Although I am prone to a bit of whine now and then. :)

    Great wordplay... and the whine goes so well with the news.
    Maybe it's better with gnus

    whine and wine do pair quite well together.
