Extraterrestrial Espresso

Sharing coffee with our visitor from the stars,

Beneath the sky's canvas, beneath the city's bars.

As steam curls up from the cup so warm,

We'd chat of Earth, in the quiet of the morn.

***

The aroma of beans, the rich, dark brew,

Would mingle with stories, as strangers often do.

I'd tell of our history, our joys, and our strife,

As we sipped from the cups of terrestrial life.

***

In that simple moment, over coffee's embrace,

We'd bridge the divide, in that quiet space.

Two beings, so different, yet seeking to find,

A connection that transcends the limits of kind.

***

The alien's wide eyes, reflecting the stars,

Would search my own, through coffee shop bars.

And in that shared cup, a bond would be born,

Between Earth and cosmos, in the quiet of morn.

Its significance as a symbol of persistence and its role in fostering connections resonate deeply within the lines of this poem.
