Cinnamon cup of coffee community
Why I absolutely love this community is very simple: the creativity in this community is very high, the writing prompts are different each week and they surely don't lack any creativity. Sometimes it doesn't resonate with my current mood but I can see that these prompts are original and this is what I love. If you're a coffee connoisseur but aren't a regular visitor yet, become one today!
Sparks
Lately, I have been checking the new prompts weekly and also felt inspired several times to publish creative writing which I had not done in ages until I found my way back to the community and for that alone, I salute you! It's great when you feel a bit blocked to write something creative and find back inspiration from original writing prompts almost every week when you check the fresh content.
Coffee anthem contest
I rarely join contests on Hive as I write for myself and usually not specifically because a task is proposed for Hivers to fulfill, there are loads of others who will join those but I have to feel the inspiration instantly to join a Hive contest. Reading the coffee anthem contest sparked my interest right away and while still reading and having no clue what to write exactly, I felt excitement and couldn't wait to get started. I am a little late entering my anthem so I doubt I can reach enough votes but hey, creativity can't be forced, lol.
The music
First, I had to decide which song to use as a guideline for my lyrics and this didn't take m more than 20 minutes to find the right one. I searched for the best coffee-themed songs and bumped into this one from Ella Mae Morse called "Forty Cups of Coffee" which was a new song to me.
Forgive me for not finding an instrumental version, if you know where to find it, let me know so I can add it. Now that you've heard the original, I'm going to share the lyrics I wrote on this music, I hope you enjoy it as I have heard the song probably hundreds of times while editing the lyrics to make the words as fitting to the song as possible. Here we go!
The Coffee Connoisseur
I've called the song "The Coffee Connoisseur" and although it doesn't fit the music of "Forty Cupc Of Coffee" perfectly, keep in mind that I'm not a songwriter. I hope you like it either way! Sometimes you have to swing with the words a bit to make them fit the music, give it a try, please. Don't forget to play the song for the best experience.
Tip: open a second tab where you play the music and meanwhile read the lyrics below.
Lyrics:
The Coffee Connoisseur
Close the doors, hold your hats
While I’m brewing your perfect coffee, I love to tease
I am the coffee connoisseur, the coffee connoisseur
I’m the coffee connoisseur and I am here to serve you all
Endless cups of coffee, I'll serve 'em up strong,
I'm born to serve you coffee, it is where I belong
I am the coffee connoisseur, the coffee connoisseur
I’m the coffee connoisseur and I am here to serve you all
While watching every sip, I’m biting my tongue
Checking all the people’s faces, and how they respond
I am the coffee connoisseur, the coffee connoisseur
I’m the coffee connoisseur and I am here to serve you all
Endless cups of coffee, I'll serve 'em up strong,
I'm born to serve you coffee it is where I belong
I am the coffee connoisseur, the coffee connoisseur
I’m the coffee connoisseur and I am here to serve you all
I tango with espresso and rock with Turkish delight,
An orchestra of flavors, from morning 'til night.
I am the coffee connoisseur, the coffee connoisseur
I’m the coffee connoisseur and I’m happy to serve you all
That's my coffee anthem
I hope you liked it or at least did not hate it lol. I know some parts ask for a playful way of pronouncing the words on the music to make it fit but I'm happy with the end result after going back and forward with the words 100s of times. I now also love this song, so it's added to my playlist.
