Starbucks buzzes loud,
In coffee cups, flowers bloom—
Secret gardens hide.

I'm reading Brian Eno's diary, which is just a day by day journal of one year in his life. In it somewhere he lists his idea of some of the things he is, in the form of I am... and then each of the things he considers himself to be are either a or an. So "I am creative" wouldn't work, but "I am a music producer" would. I quickly closed the book before I read his list and began writing my own, which I may or may not share here. But I wanted you guys to think about creating your own list and think about sharing it here. Maybe I'm an optimist to think you might be interested in doing so, but really it might be fun. There might even be some overlap! And don't worry, it seems only two other people would be reading your list.
Nice, it made me think of my garden in Tanzania with coffee plants, and after the blossoms the beans which I roasted in a pan on the stove and made my own coffee. Pretty terrible coffee but a nice memory invoked by your haiku, thanks.
