Cappuccino

Cappuccino,

the perfect aroma

as sweaty hands

labored under the

sun

You go inside the

coffee shop,

I see you,

tan as cappuccino

I'd say *moreno

I stand up,

order another cup

make sure I'm next

and as your men's cologne wafts

my olfactory sense aroused

I wonder with skin the color of

moreno

and eyes cappuccino

I always think of this

when I drink my favorite

cup of cappuccino

GLOSSARY:

*moreno - a word derived from Spanish to denote the skin color (brown) of a male, usu. as a complement. *Morena is the same but refers to a female (with brown skin color)
