High Tea @ Low Tea
Don’t lol at hearing about the High Tea jest
When tea ceremony first became a fad
Some one poured away the soup, and had
Just the tea leaves kept to serve the guest
Even China the home of tea had told a story
Some upshot returned to the native with glory
Shouting to his country wife upon hitting the door
“Haste! Haste! Make fire and have the tea brew!”
An hour later she presented him with a tea stew
