Ode to a Cup of Tea arlene s bice
O teacup of fine china
so pretty in my hand
trimmed in gold
delicately painted
dainty roses, shiny
filled with hot, herbal tea
from the English teapot
what pleasure you bring
a friend across the table
shares a cup of tea with me
such aroma fills the air
with a scent so familiar
it brings back memories
of happy contented times
moments i sincerely care
continue on lovely times
let prettiness touch my life
sipping tea, reading poetry
let pen and paper in hand
floating with words and rhymes.
