Two Cs in a pond,
Born and raised in different grounding,
Cookie’s daddy, Sugar. Sweet, her mama,
Coffee, roasted for taste, but still a little harsh.
Two Cs in a pond,
Is it the C or the O in common
Or the E they share?
So that with ease, fall into conversation,
Text after text after text,
Calls to video calls, and back to texts.
Two Cs in a pond,
So different, but so, so in sync,
One, sweet a bite, the other, tough a sip,
Together, birth a taste of their own,
A sensation divine.
