Coffee Fairy©James Browne
Coffee in Fairyland
A second pot of coffee
To calm a painter's hand
So I may go humming
To Rainbow Fairyland
Just another warmup
Into my favorite cup
To keep my fairy spirit
Up, up, up, up, up!
The beverage of good commerce
And steady sober arts
My brushes find their colors
To warm the people's hearts
My imagination's soaring
With jolts of warm caffeine
I will bring this being to life
In all her lustrous sheen
Oh sweet and fragrant liquid
Robust and hearty friend
Join me in my industry
Until my name is penned
