Can't measure forever
Can't comprehend infinity
Life is short yet you promised
Commitment til eternity

Now we are Half-Century
Sipping dedicated golden years
Still stirring our stories
With its welcoming aroma
Both bitter and sweet

Served with a smile
Sometimes with cringe
Served daily
Sometimes we skip

Half-Century
Of boldness and bliss
Of softness, and wish
Us another year -
Caffeinated journey

Once a seed
Produced a bean
Grinding Half-Century
Unconsciously,
Days are long
Years are short
Our coffee
I've been sipping
Served by you,
Half-Century
