The Drive through not taken

Two coffee shops in my neighbourhood,

And only five dollars, long I stood

And read the menus as fast as I could

To where the cars lined the drive through;

Then took the cheapest, to compare

And hoping it was the better chain,

Because it’s aroma filled the air;

I guessed the flavour would have more flare.

In my mug strong and black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how trends lead the way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a hashtag

Somewhere on Facebook or twitter:

Two coffee shops in my neighbourhood, and I-

I took the one with the shortest line,

And that got me to my work on time.
