Pakka's Jungle Coffee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't need to be in the jungle or out on safari to
Make a pan of Pakka's special dark and murky brew.
Just need some plain old coffee grounds, a pan and some H2O,
Just mix it all together and put it on the stove.
Now cook it till it's murky and smells like jungle rot,
Then pour your cup of java, and see what you have got!
Now, if you're kinda queasy read the disclaimer underneath,
Because the only way to strain this brew is right between your teeth!

Commentary:
my grandfather...we called him Pakka...used to make this coffee...my mom did once in awhile too...just a fun memory for me that I wanted to share. m.e.

m.e., memories condensed in an enyoyable poem. your Pakka sounds like quite a character. did he name it Jungle Coffee or was that your doing? ms.
-------
ms, yes Pakka was QUITE a character...he was a man's man...an ironworker by trade..a pratical joker, an artist,a father to 12 children, he was a hard man in alot of ways, but endearing too. and yes, he named it Jungle Coffee. Thanks for asking.
