Here’s my attempt at an Adjective Noun Poem:
“Office Coffee”
Wouldn’t you know, it is just my luck:
I’m stuck drinking office coffee
instead of Dunkin or Starbucks.
Wouldn’t you know, it is just my luck:
running behind, in traffic stuck
when I really need my caffeine.
So wouldn’t you know, it’s just my luck:
I’m stuck drinking office coffee.
