Tea Time

Sweet, steaming tea poured properly
Into the pink porcelain cup
Sipped simply — no slurping
Softly set on the silver saucer
Beside beautifully baked biscuits and breads
Laid lightly on lace-covered luncheon table
Delightful!

    Marvelous alliteration Sam! And beautiful ending. I enjoyed this poem, and I don’t even like tea!
