A Cup of Tea
I took time for tea,
To sit at a desk, and look at a book,
Just a moment I need, some time for me,
To gaze out the window, and lay in the nook.
The clock ticks steady, the lights are all dim,
I sip clear the honey, all over the rim.
The streets are a-bustle,
But I shall not hustle; I shall sit ‘n snuggle.
Inside my brick building, the ivy in trellis,
A moment of quiet, I took time for tea.

THANKS TIFFANY ~ FOR ANOTHER GEM ! Any Brand of tea rom HORNIMAN'S to TWININGS is ameliorated by HONEY ~ Love BRIAN (UK)
Those times for "me" are so important.
The words flowed really well. And I felt I was drinking tea too.
What great flow.. i enjoyed reading 🙂 Can i have a wee cuppa too?
Your poem just might make a tea lover out of this coffee drinker. Fine poem, I enjoyed it, Tiffany!
Your so well written poem is an invitation to step back once in a while and smell the flowers (or drink some tea). We never do that enough. Thank you for publishing, I needed it.
