I'll Have Tea

I’ll Have Tea

 

Little teapot with your water

Share the tea boiling hotter

And let us have some tea together

With some cream there even better

 

And be sure to include a plate

With a place for the little cakes

And a platter for cookies too

As we enjoy our afternoon

 

Know the silver teaspoon there

To spoon our sugar with some flare

And call to the coffee pot

That it’s not the only beverage hot

 

And be there for the games we play

With a hand of cards most our days

And keep the tea ready there

To fuel the gossip that we share

 

Help us feel like royalty

As we sip our earl gray tea

And help us put our pinkies out

When our breeding we sometimes doubt

        Tea tea tea every minute of the day when I was growing up - I had to polish a silver (mind you) teapot once a week - very la dee da! It served for every purpose (the tea)... miss my parents. Love your ode!

          A charming, excellent poem.

          Wonderful Wayne.

          There's nothing like a good cup of tea and there's nothing like afternoon tea at the Ritz.

          Keep writing
