This is a very well-executed Cinquain!
I'm not a coffee addict, so I can't agree with it's essential substance, but many voters certainly will identify with your commercial.
Good luck!

    You're very welcome - and quite flexible for a coffee addict.

A cinquain going straight to my heart (and stomach). Waking and getting up absolutely need coffee. I am still so very grateful that I bought this marvelous espresso machine years ago in Milan. It makes the most wonderful coffee. I drink it black, hot, strong, sipping with my eyes closed until I am able to confront the day.
Well-written poem!

An essential way to kickstart the day for some. The hand is sometimes a bit unsteady first thing in the morning, which probably explains the spilling. A well-formed Cinquain that follows the specifications. Good luck in the contest.

you followed the Cinquain poem rules with well chosen descriptive words.
Good picture choice, also.
I think the word "is" in your author's notes at the top, should be edited out. At least it doesn't make sense to me.
Good poem, though and best of luck in the contest.

Dear Mystery Writer,

I have to admit I got tickled to read the word 'spilling'. I figured that must mean it's probably your first cup of the day, huh? haha

This is a fine cinquain and it seems to meet all the requirements of the contest challenge. Good luck in the voting!

A very well-written Cinquain about starting the day with a fresh cup of coffee is always a good way to start the day with great enthusiasm and positivity that will last the entire day.
