William Shakespeare wrote of loves both great and bold, 
Star-crossed lovers, or so the tale is told.
But my affection, be it greater still, 
I must express’t in verse – by God, I will!

Cupid's arrow has untimely struck,
Now, I quench my thirst from the devil's cup.
I love you hot, I love you cold,
My love for you will ne’er grow old. 

When I think upon the one I love,
I shake and sweat – great Heavens above!
Determined, an ode to you I write, 
It’s you that keeps me up all night.

My love fair goes by many names,
Lady ‘Arabica’ she’s often famed.
Or sweet ‘Robusta’, beauteous ‘Java’,
I love you, even when you scold my tongue like lava.

Hark! My great source of inspiration,
My pure, unfailing motivation.
I’m up night and day because of you,
Our frequent encounters give me déjà brew.

Forever dark and mysterious,
You mocha me delirious.
You make me unbelievably frappe,
With you, I could never be unhappy. 

Your sultry tones, your beans divine,
The thrilling rush – for you I pine!
The anecdote to lethargy,
Know always: my heart belongs to thee.

Dearest love, you keep me grounded,
Without you, I'd be dumbfounded.
Soy, oat, or almond; skimmed or lactofree,
There are many different ways you bring joy to me.

We make a Brew-tiful, dutiful duo, 
Your absence only gives me woe. 
For you my love doth only grow,
Don’t leave me! It would be too much of a blow.

We meet five, six, seven times a day, 
You are my one and only bae.
Spiced, frothed, milky and roasted, 
I like you many ways, as I’ve just boasted.

Mocha, Cappuccino, Flat white, Espresso,
Without you all I’d be depresso.
Cortado, instant, Macchiato, Latte,
Life with you is always a party. 

Other drinks just aren’t the same,
You are my love: Eternal Dame,
It’s only you I wish to woo,
To put it simply – I love brew!

I hope our love will never end,
Because you and I are the perfect blend.
You make my heart beat double time,
Dear coffee, will you be my Valentine?
