A Cup of Tea



When the world is all at odds
And the mind is all at sea
Then cease the useless tedium
And brew a cup of tea.
There is magic in its' fragrance,
There is solace in its' taste;
And then laden moments vanish
Somehow into space.
And the world becomes a lovely thing!
There's beauty as you'll see;
All because you briefly stopped
To brew a cup of tea.

  1. Oh that's a sweet poem... I haven't had my tea yet today. I was going to brew a pot and take it up to my sewing room. Didn't happen. Oh well.

    Very pretty tea things and a lovely card...
