I am told by my brother, who also owns tea gardens, that the young leaves with a silvery hue, are the best and most expensive. It is also shipped to the Buckingham Palace.

A Cup Of Tea
Michael Edwards said:
I\'ve worked for my caffeine, I deserve my caffeine and I\'m darn well going to have it. My bedtime tea: lemon and ginger with a teaspoon of honey. Other than that it\'s any good tea - in leaf form of course.

Tea is real thirst quencher to me too dear friend yet take my hat off to those who at night can drink coffee. I would be up and dancing til all hours so stick to plain water then. A very refreshing read.

Hello Christina,
Thank you for a charming, delightful write.
I\'ll agree with you of course there is nothing like a cup of tea and a glass of prosecco and a nice glass of white wine.

Ohhhhhh CHRISTINA ~ A very English Poem today ! Its 3pm here (UK) and at THREE ~ everything stops for TEA. I have just brewed a pot of Earl Grey in my Office (served in China Cup with a dash of milk) and a Digestive Biscuit ! The English Tea Ceremony is almost as elaborate as the Japanese ! Loose Tea brewed in a China Pot and the leaf strained through a Silver Tea Strainer ! I have all these accroutements in a Cupboard in My Office ! Tea is very different from Coffee and should be the first & last Drink of the DAY ! There are over 50 varieties of TEA each one with a fascinating Geography & History ~ Its never just TEA ! Angela (being Spanish !) likes Wine ~ Coffee & Tea in that order ! However she says my *English Tea Ritual* makes it taste a lot better ~ especially with a splash of BRANDY !
Blessing & Peace & Love to You ALL
Yours ANGELA & BRIAN🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡

I am drinking a mug of earl grey tea as i read you today.
I too enjoy a variety of different teas which saves my palate from becoming too familiar with any particular blend/type.
Following Goldfinch\'s comment about decaf, i have never tried a decaf tea having decided that my decaf coffee experience was most disappointing.

I am English and certainly enjoy my cup of tea.. I\'m taking my first one today as I type to you.. more often a mug these days.. thats the vessel I drink from.. not a self explanatory description of my good self.. I do prefer it to coffee bu also like coffee, just in a different kind of way.. I like both strong and without milk or sugar... delicious and refreshing.. I also like cheese but that\'s a different story altogether.... I thoroughly enjoyed today\'s poetic serving by you Christina... AGT\'s

We drink both tea and coffee. The tea we have is proper tea, none of this teabag nonsense, we have Rwanda/Burundi tea and it is wonderful.
I drink Colombian coffee and I grind the beans before using it.
I think this poem should have an \'18\' against it as you used a rude word, you said decaf - that is the devil\'s brew. LOL

I think you did a fabulous job, it was a really enjoyable read. Sometimes it can be fun to try things a little bit different. Especially when they turn out so good.

Break Your Heart
dusk arising said:
Tis a fact of life that more relationships fail than last. Experience enables us to accept this and realise it takes two to tango. Ending always will be a trying time no matter which side of it you find yourself upon.
Your piece clearly demonstrates how awkward it is to end a relationship with the intent of causing no pain and of course there is the lasting guilt of feeling you have hurt someone who was so nearly the right one once.

A heart that breaks can to an extent also heal and the humble contrition in this verse would surely help that process along - - a good reminder for us readers dear Christina.

In our lives there are breakages within us but they can be insignificant once the true person in your life arrives.
Good write Christina.
