PANERA BREAD POEM = COFFEE br br Around 1615 coffee came to Western Europe br Raising a huge controversy and warning cry. br Some said it was intoxicating and poisonous br And any whom consume it will die. br br No one knows how coffee was discovered br Though it is said its effects were known before A.D.575. br Persian armies carried and ate its seeds for strength br Which in battle could decide who would perish or survive. br br Arabs where the first to brew its bitter seeds into a drink br In a attempt to make it taste better and easier to consume. br Soon the new beverage spread to Turkey and Europe br As the world became addicted to the harvest of it’s bloom. br br Thank God for caffeine found in coffee br Which helps multitudes make it through the day. br Like ancestors of the past it helps energy to last br And for it’s stimulant we are eager to pay. br br All Tom Zart Poems Are Free To Post To Show Love And Support! br br By God’s Poet Tom Zart br Most Published Poet On The Web! br To Listen To Tom Zart’s Poems Go To = br br http: new.pivtr.comen?scheduletom-zart br http: ?www.veteranstodayforum.com?viewforum.
