Tea on Thursday
January 7, 2016
Inspired by the poems about the laundry yesterday … I think tea?
Morning white awaken,
silver tongues smoky taste.
Mild morning energy
pure green leaves bathed,
Water barely boiled ,
emerald twirls, swirling
blossom of the warm pot.
Day closes so black warms,
Belly replete gentle
Pu’erh brings sleep day ends..
Tea is my tipple… dawn, noon or night. I am methodical with my choice and each brew is as ceremonious as one might experience in China, the home of fine tea. I am particular as regards quality and provenance, and also dependent on the time of day.
