A Mixture of Tea

I Like The 'Black Tea, The White Tea
and The English Breakfast & Earl Grey'
and I Serve 'Rooibos' and 'Ginger'  Teas
In My Silver Pot, Cups & Tray

I Like The 'Rose Tea and Herbal Teas 
& The Honey-Vanilla-Chamomile'
& 'Apple-Cinnamon' & 'Orange-Pekoe' 
Topped With Sliced Lemon Wedge Frills
(& Balancing Cup & Saucer & Carrot Cake's A Skill)

I've Teas of 'Lavender & Hibiscus 
& of Jasmine' Flavored Hints
I Pour These Liquid Petals 
To Be My Pretty Porcelain's Contents

and That Brand of 'Ancient Tea Trees' 
& of Ceylon's '1001 Nights'
Tantalizes My Tastebuds 
With Their Dark Teabags Delights

And Exotic Ginseng Teas Blend Into 
A Warm & Soothing, Brewed Bond
As A Free Tea Leaf Floats Like
A Lotus In A Cup Pond

Swirling A Cream or Sugar? Concoction
In A Teaspoon's Pool
Gently Lifted To Our Lips Breath
To Savor & Cool

Wafting Aromatic Scents
Thru My Parlor Among My Guests
Or Just Me In My Kitchen
As Day Begins Afresh

But The Tea Mixture Taste
of A Preference Best For Me
Is The Oolong, Added With Peppermint
and Pure Green Tea

aaaah ... slurp
Join me for a sip ...  slurp
