When the day becomes too much,
Alone moments with a hot coffee
And the cool sounds of Carolina Chocolate Drops
Soothe worn nerves.

The job need not matter
For stress comes from all professions,
But that rich Colombian joe
Sweetened by traditional songs is magic.

Sitting with both hands around the hot mug
Only enhances the calm
The plucky banjo plays
As nine to five becomes a memory.
