Tea and Friendship

When the world is all at odds

And the mind is all at sea

Then cease the useless tedium

and brew a cup of tea.

There is magic in its fragrance,

There is solace in its taste;

And the laden moments vanish

somehow into space.

And the world becomes a lovely thing!

There's beauty as you'll see;

all because you briefly stopped

to brew a cup of tea.

Bare with me and my poetry mood, it just seems to be calling to me lately. To paraphrase what I read in PoemCrazy-poems catch a moment within us and move us to someplace new. That is what I've been experiencing with poems. This has been helped along by a wonderful treat I received in the mail from Kary of Farmhouse Kitchen, a delightful blog that you need to check out. She talks about gardening, Buddy, food, and food again, it always makes me hungry to read her tales. We have gotten to know each other through our posts and I must say I consider her a good friend. It is amazing how wires, computers, electronic stuff can lead to something warm and personal. I never would have thought so when I started this blog but it has brought me more joy than I can possibly imagine. Thank you Kary and all of you.
