Coffee date at Starbucks,
Doesn’t it seem like a must do?
Something so very simple,
At the same time so elite.
Especially for broke college students,
It’s saved up for important dates.
Date at Starbucks was a dream,
That we kept on postponing.
And suddenly, one normal day,
At a park, munching on samosas,
I look at my man and said,
“Starbucks is such a facade.”
“I make the best coffee,
And ambiance, we love it green.
Then, why is Starbucks on our list?
It’s nothing but overpriced.”
He just flopped his arms around me,
As we both stared at the sky with a smile.
Few months after that day,
We did end up in Starbucks.
He ordered Caffe’ Mocha,
And me Caffe’ Americano,
One sip and we knew,
What I said was true.

Beautiful articulation of feelings, its not a place that makes a bond blossom. Instead the emotions that are shared between 2 souls that unites 2 heartbeats into 1. Truly delightful to say the least 👏👌
Thank you so much, Sidharth! So glad you liked it! 🙈🙈🤗🤗😘😘💞💞❣️❣️💖💖 Love obviously is more than just fancy dates. ❤️❤️❤️
Add a little salt. 🤭
🤣😂😂🤣
Try it. Salt makes everything better! 😉
Yeah, not on tea! One time, I went to a coffee shop and put salt in my tea instead of sugar 🙄🙄🙄
I think I’ll stick to cold drinks now….
Haha… What can we do without a pinch of salt? 😂😂
Just a pinch? Make it a tablespoon.
Nahh… You try it with a tablespoon! 😂😂😂
The recipe is yours. I won’t dare try.
You spoiled your ice cream with too much… Try it with just a sprinkle! 😍😍😍
Never taking your advice again.
My heart, you break break break
My faith in nice, you shake shake shake
You don’t know how to, bake bake bake
The way you cook is wreck wreck wreck
😝😝😝
When I’m through with you
I’m gonna make you soup
You can be sure
You’ll need a day to puke
I wouldn’t drink
Spill it in a sink
😝😝😝
Don’t even blink
I’m watching you
Forget the sink
I’m gonna make puppy face and cry! 😝
I prefer the dragon. 😁
We could soar the sky together! 😍
I’d love to join 😎
Let’s go pick Anushka too! 😍😍😍
On her blog please 😂
Whyyy???
Where else would you pick her from??
Varanasi 😍
Please pick me🙈🙈😍😍😍🙈🙈
🤗🤗🤗😘😘
I did that once. But it wasn’t a little… 😑
Haha!
And how did it turn out to be?
Try it Bharath!! You gotta do it! 😍
I did it, remember??
You did it wrong!
I did what you told me to.
I said very little!!!
Very little made it very bad.
You got it wrong!!!
I won’t ask for advice again. 😂
I’m good with advice… 😬
Not in advising.
I give amazing marketing advice… Believe me! 😍
Sorry, I’m not into marketing.
I made you a nice ad, remember? 😍😍😍To sell your skills… 😂
Hahaha yeah! I think I’ll post it on WordPress. 😂🤣🤣
Nahhh… You’ll kill my chance at getting a job!! That’s not portfolio worthy! 😂😂😂
Then do one for me which is worth showing off. 🥺🥺
Haha… Post it! It’s not that bad… I actually like it. 😝
Fine! Don’t.
Soon… For now, you can use that… 😍😍😍 Pakka, I’ll make it better. 😝😝😝😍😍😍😘😘😘😘
Disgusting…. Obviously… 😒😒😒
Shreya says it’s delicious. Please tell her that.
She said salt is delicious, she didn’t say salt in tea!
She told me salt in tea is delicious. 😂😂
Did she? Whattttttt 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Do you find it delicious?
I nearly threw up.
Blehhh 😝😝💖
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bharath doesn’t understand proportion, don’t blame me! 😝😝😝
😂😂😂😂
You mess up the proportion!!!!
Whatever!
Blehhh 😝
Beautiful flow of emotions & agreeing on the “taste”….it’s also so true that Starbucks is overrated….I’ve never liked their coffee actually.
Thank you so much, Navin. So glad you agree with me! 🤗🤗🤗😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘💖💖💖❤️❤️❤️
I do 😘❤️🤗✨
🤗🤗😘😘💞💞❣️❣️
As a former barista and shift manager there, I can agree with you my friend. It is overpriced and definitely a status play. Tonight I made my Mom, Dad and I a very similar tea to a handcrafted concoction they sell and you know what, it was even better 😊
Yeah, I have heard they add extra sugar and extra coffee for it to be addictive! But it’s seeped into culture, and once a thing is a cultural thing, it’s hard to shift perspective imo.
I didn’t know that! 😂😂
So nice to know you have the same opinion!! Coffee dates in Cafes are definitely just a waste a money! 🤗🤗😘
Nice poem!
Ia have never been to Starbucks as I feel it won’t match the hype, (had been to CCD few years back, was disappointed af)
Great post!
Haha. None of the coffee parlours or cafes match the hype. It’s all about the ‘gram and proving to world how much of a spendthrift one is. 🤗🤗😘😘
Thank you so much, Uzzawal. ❤️
I really enjoyed reading this! Thank you for sharing ❤️
Oh, and have you looked at the results of the poetry competition yet?!
So glad you enjoyed reading this. 🤗🤗😘😘😘❤️
I did see the result, I’m still figuring out how do I react to it. Like how much of the excitement is acceptable? 🙈🙈🙈Cause my half open eyes in middle of my half complete sleep is wide open now. But my brain is too dead to form words. Thank you seems so bland. I wish there was jumping with joy and being on cloud nice emojis. 😂😂😂🤗🤗😘😘😘❤️💖❤️❤️💖❤️❤️❤️❤️😍❤️❤️💞💞💞❣️💞😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘💞💞💞💞💖💖💖❤️❤️❤️❤️❣️❣️💞
❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️
Starbucks? Na… Even I prefer my own coffee.
Haha… You too? If everyone agrees with me, who’s going to Starbucks? 😂😂😂
Starbucks is too expensive and anyways my mother pays for it, so I really can’t do anything.
Haha… That’s nice! 😝😂😂😂
Right! Wait till I leave this place and I’ll be independent…
Haha… We are never independent enough to make decisions of our own… Mom always rules! 😂😂
You just crushed my dreams, thank you!
Haha… Welcome to the real world, girl! 😂
Oh! I wish I could stay in my own world! It’s way better, you know! I walk around carrying knives and guns with me, though I don’t kill anybody except for bad guys. I travel around and explore…
It’s nice! You should probably visit my world someday.
Take me to your world 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sure! The ticket to my world just costs some love, trust and craziness. You can definitely hop in anytime, if you have that.
Haha… I’m on the way… 😍😍😍😍
And I’m waiting!
I’m here… But I can’t take off my invisibility cloak!!! Can you hear me?
Oh! Yes, I can hear you… You’re near the wonder wall right?
Yeah, I fell asleep there! 🤪
It’s totally understandable… anyone can sleep while wondering.
Yep! ❤️
This brought a smile to my face😊 How nice💕
So glad it did! Have a day filled with even more smiles. 🤗🤗😘😘💞💞❤️❤️💖💖❣️❣️
You too💖😘
🤗🤗😘😘❣️❣️💞💞💖💖

I went to Starbucks once. It surely makes a hole in your pocket. And not everyone will like the coffee.
True… Starbucks? Nayyyyy! 😋😋😋
Starbucks is as much a status symbol as Nike sneakers or a Rolex watch. All overpriced for the common function they perform. But I would go to Starbucks if it meant a date with you! ❤🌹🦄
Haha, Brad!! 🙈🙈 A beautiful hilltop, with some papers and pens and hot mug of coffee would be better!🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘😘🦄🦄🥰🥰🥰
I agree, that would be better! Much love to you! ❤🌹💋💋💋
Much love to you too! ♥️♥️♥️
♥️♥️
❤️❤️❤️
haha nice one, hopefully the love was not a facade, too! B-)
Haha!
❤️❤️☕️☕️
🤗🤗❤️❤️♥️♥️
😃
🔥
I love the image of him flopping his arms around you and staring at the sky. Brilliant! ❤🌹
Haha … Thank you so much! 🤗🤗😘😘♥️♥️
So nice , Shreya!😍💜💜
I too wonder that why some couples fancy about having a date in such high profile places, where there is so much of pomp and show and are keen to spend their money.😜😂😂 Nothing could be compared with a handmade coffee under the roof of sky !!😂😍😍
Loved reading it😘🤗
Thank you so much, Chetna. 🤗🤗😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️ So glad you feel the same!! 😍😍😍 Handmade coffee has more love in it. 😁😁😁♥️♥️😘😘😘
Coffee made from love to you!😜😜😍😂❤❤
🤗🤗😘😘💘💘💓💓
Ykw, whenever u rain your emojis on me, it never fails to make me smile!🤗😂😂💜💜💫
Keep that smile! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘😘😘
It just now came back again😂😜😀😀💕💕
Haha… 🤗🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘😘😍😁😁👻
Aaahhhaaaaa🤩🤩🤩
This is amazing Shreya…!!
You know what..I make good coffee too…I think I should open a coffee shop… people will forget Starbucks 😂😂😂😂😂( you know what I am saying right😜)
I know what you mean… Let’s really open a coffee shop! 😍😍😍 But where? 😋😋😋
Somewhere in Forest🤩
Or near some river🤩
May be in mountains🤩
😂😂😂
A mountain forest with a river flowing 😍😍😍
Yes…yesss…yessss😍😍😍
Sounds amazing haina?
Haan 😍😍😍
We will do that🤩🤩
We should! 😍😍😍
Haha I loved this one. It’s the feeling and who you’re with that matters, not the ambience. Beautifully written, Shreya. ♥️
