Ode To The Campus Starbucks

Monday, February 8th, 2010

I love the Starbucks at my work. I just went there today and felt inspired to write this (remarkably cheesy) poem. Enjoy.

ODE TO STARBUCKS

I love the cold drinks, And I love the hots;
I especially love it, When you give me free shots.

I pay for a Grande, You give me a Venti;
You reward my loyalty, With caffeine a plenty.

Your ladies are lovely, They call me by my name;
I frequent other Bucks, But they’re just not the same.

So here’s to you, Starbucks, Thanks for making my day;
Even with your high prices, I’d have it no other way.

“Crazy Heart” reminded me a lot of “The Wrestler”. It’s about an older man, past his prime, trying to make a living off of what he used to be famous for. He’s struggling with addiction, is estranged from his kid and meets a younger woman who gives him a taste of life again.
