Secawan kopi
Setiap pagi
Senyuman gadis
Begitu manis
A cup of java
Each and ev’ry morn
A smile from the Diva
Is sweetly borne.

And so. My best friend, she loves her coffee in the a.m. I love this picture I took of her.
Have a strongly caffeinated Monday, everybody!
oo ah.. coffee and a pretty face.. nice way to kick start a morning
cheers
Ahhh..sweet glorious, intoxicating beans from Heaven. Drinking in the aroma on a Monday morning is just what we need.
Pure sips of unadulterated bliss, is what it is..
Senyuman manis si gadis
Memikat hati semua si pembaca
Bila ada masa
Jemima pun nak minum bersama.
A thousand apologies, Kenny.
I know I’m not supposed to spoil your beautiful pantun.
» cumidanciki
The Diva will be so happy to read your comment, I can tell ya that.

“Pure sips of unadulterated bliss, is what it is..”
You got it!
» Jemima
Betul ke senyuman gadis memikat
Hati pembaca yang berbeda?
Kalo ade pisang sesikat
Kehangatan hati bisa bereda…
Is truly so her smile so bewitching?
For the readers have hearts differing
If you have a comb of bananas ready
Our heart’s passion may grow steady…
Okay, methinks that is a worse pantun, but I had to try, rite?
The coffee is strong
The aroma enticing
The wait too long
Before the fair lady sings…
it’s scary how her eyes just STARES at u…. =P
» Célestin
This lady doesn’t sing
Just wears bling-bling
And if she forgets her weekly waxing
Your date may be hair-raising!
(She’s so killing me for that one, yikes!)
» Jeffer
I see them nearly every weekend. Imagine my regularly scheduled horror.
simple n sweet! ^__^
just monday? i think i need to be strongly caffeinated ALL WEEK LONG.
another mystery woman… where do u find them all? such a ladies man lah u…
» ~ elfie ~
Not “kurang manis” but “cukup manis”, eh?
» wintergirl
Didn’t Lionel Ritchie used to sing that song?
» KC
Where got lah? They just turn up?
monday and kopi kuat sure goes hand in hand..hmm, when are you posting one with hunk sipping coffee instead? the ladies need some eye candy too ya know? :p
She has very bewitching eyes. Like a cat ready to pounce, almost.
» sc
Hahaha, you find me the hunk and then I post your eye candy for you lor…
» Michelle
Yes, we call her Kuching Woman also. She loves cats but they have a tendency of running away from her though. I shall leave the WHY to your respectives imaginations…
a cup of kopi is good anytime of day… or NITE. me a nite owl u see.
ehemm….. Kenny dear… you are so dead!!!!
Next I meet you I make sure I’m going for a makeover first.
See you on Sunday for breakfast.
Love yeah…..
» Anna
I used to be a night owl too, till I began a relationship with a morning sparrow. Now I’ve joined the other team. Daylight ain’t too bad, once you get used to it.
» Nisa
Hehe, didn’t you already put on loads of makeup for this post (grieving as you did, that you went raw and unfurnished/unfinished for the last post at Finnegan’s)? Now wanna makeover some more ar?
When are you gonna see the true beauty in you, m’dear?
» Nisa
P.S. This Sunday I’ll be down South lah. JB Mali. Dinner instead?
what brew is she sipping on? for that matter, what’s YOUR favorite brew, kenny? we wanna know!!
p.s. if you dun drink coffee, then what DO u drink?
kalau secawan kopi
gadis sudah manis
dua cawan apamacam?
=P
Tries to post this earlier..
there’s a song:
kopi susu kurang manis tambah gula
badan lesu, kerana hati tergoda.
» Selene
Hahaha!! So smart har you, add that second question. Yeah, I don’t really drink that much coffee these days. Give me a cuppa sugarless, unmilked (unmilked? surely I mean non-dairy?) green tea any day. What brew? No preferences lah. I’m a very ordinary fler. Just don’t add those roasted rice stuff into my matcha…
» sukiyaki
Secawan kopi gadis cukup manis
Dua cawan macam dibakar mancis…
A cuppa joe keeps the girl sugary sweet
Two cups though, can give you burnt feet… (???)
Gosh, someone stop these pantuns NOW!
If indeed the lady needs a-waxing,
Wouldn’t her man find it taxing?
Would he not prefer his sweet lil pearl
To go rather furry and au naturel?
oh dearrrrr,
I mean, TRIED to post this earlier!
Pls delete the above comment. Buat malu saja.
A verse from an old song:
Kopi susu, kurang manis tambah gula,
badan lesu, kerana hati tergoda.
That wee poem in Malay made me smile…. but I still think you’re slightly buaya hehehee
» Célestin
The Diva herself must be perplexed
Of what men wants of the fairer sex
No clue of what they desire the mostest
So she reckons, best tame this forest?
(I am SO dead. So DEAD, I tell ya.)
» kak teh
That’s a nice verse. Old songs are the best, aren’t they? Full of ancient rhythms and lost lustiness. I’ll attempt a reply —
Kopi hitam, lebih pahit lebih terasa,
Hati tergoda kerana susu si ga…
Uhm, maybe I shouldn’t finish this pantun else it’d head into 18SX territory…
» Jesse
No lah, I where got buaya one? She’s my best friend ma… I’m just promoting her to all the eligible menfolk around the blogosphere. Who knows? I might be able to claim some sorta bounty hunter, er, matchmaker fee.
i wonder what the DIVA looks like after her MAKEOVER. another post? lol
wah u guys damn free to write pantuns hor?
» brian bryan
Do you think she’d give a choice in the matter?
» Keith
No lah, release stress ma… It’s only pantuns, not epic Tolkienesque songs in Elvish, mind you.
oooh … i am gonna have my Nescafe Gold Blend now.
a bit late, to kickstart the day,
but aint too late to jolt myself for the impending week.
her eyes are hypnotising me… i;m lost in her gaze…
coffee’s a girl’s best friend in the morning
good makeup in the afternoon
moisturiser at night
and DIAMONDS anytime of the day!
sorry not good at rhyming =P
» J2KFfm
Never too late for coffee, I must certainly agree. Unless one plans on sleeping, that is…
» kristian
Quickly! Run, run, while you still can! Do not, I repeat, DO NOT look into her eyes!!
» Calypso
Nah, no need for rhymes when your lines tell the truth. Guys, though, are easier… We only need one thing all day long. No prizes for guessing. Ahem.
i need at least THREE cups of coffee in the morning before i can even open my eyes. one cup is not enuf.
is that coffee bean? lots very familiar leh
» the_lighthouse
Wouldn’t be easier just to get an intravenous coffee drip connected directly with the espresso machine?
» Poh Chu
Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. Yuppers. I cheat on Starbucks ever so often with CBTL & San Francisco Coffee. I know, I’m soooo unfaithful.
i prefer coffee bean to starbucks. brighter and easier to sit and do work. starbucks is more for lounging around. too comfortable for work.
» Poh Chu
Ah, to each their own. I would agree that Starbucks would be more of a fav for chillin’ out and a relaxing yak-athon with close friends.
But these days, there are so many coffee chains and franchises to choose from. I remember the day when I stumbled upon a local rip-off of another local rip-off of an international chain and I realized it was beyond ridiculous.
haha, i know which one ur talking about. Old TOWN or Old TASTE? =P
When the diva finishes her forest
Will she have a chorus
Of hungry boys after her
Thirty-one different flavours?
Drink hot coffee, drink hot tea
Burn your lips and remember me!
It was years ago yet I remember this little 2 liners in my school days esp. when friends need to part. These beverages are for reminiscing good times! Enjoy and it’s ok to smile even when alone.
caffeine comes in many forms, eh?
throw in some sugar, a cute poem, a gorgeous girl and you’ll get a nice post like this!
no lah… lionel ritchie sang “all NITE long” not “all WEEK long”
lol
» Sunny
Oops. You got me there. Tee hee.
» Célestin
Perhaps the Diva has her chorus
Of boys running thru her forest
But I have to stop these verses
Or she’ll send me curses!
Oh, you should see the text messages she’s sent me from this comment thread! Hehe.
» Chin
Haha, I rather remember you without the burnt lips. Unless it’s someone’s kiss burning me…
And it’s definitely ok to smile when one is alone. ‘course, other folks may think you’re nutso though.
» Nic (KHKL)
Oh, the Diva is like good, strong shot of caffeine all rght. She’ll keep you up all night long. *sniggers at wintergirl’s comment*
» wintergirl
Oh, that’s right hor.
So will there be an encore
Or may you not rhyme anymore?
I hope I’ve not been a bore
About the Diva’s hair galore…
» Célestin
Ah! may we never stop our rhyming
Still, the Diva’s bell I’ll not be chiming
To other pastures we may wander
Spinning songs of woe and wonder.
May we never ring her bell?
Her ears our secrets to tell?
My tears may fill an entire well
Like raindrops fall and pell…
» Célestin
Never say never, my brother
Though to get nearer
One may have to go farther
Before Happily Ever After…
Never say never, I pay heed
I shall say Always instead
So when shall I be introduced
To your pretty lil muse?
» Célestin
To meet our darling Ms. Nisa
You wonder whose @ss you have to kiss-a
The answer, really, is no one’s
Unless you like smooching buns?
My reply is short, simple and sure
Depends rather on the owner of the rear…
LOL
» Célestin
Then, my good brother, you’d be glad to know
That my fair lady, of her rear, has plenty to show!
*really, really runs and hide this time from the diva*
Kenny: short and sweet, and makes me want to have another cuppa (my second for today!)
» Eliza
Just the second for the day? C’mon, you can do better than that… Hahaha…
*me on caffeine high from pick ‘n’ brew luncheon today*
haha, she does look the part.
happy caffeinated morning to you too kenny! ^_^
