A Tea Infused With Love

Rose petals for a broken heart

                                A sense of peace do they impart

                                My sweetheart gave a gift to me

                                    Of lavender, rose petal tea

                                       A bottle of essential oil

                                 Organic rose for hearts turmoil

                                A gift of roses from my daughter

                               Rose petal-infused sparkling water

                              My grateful thanks to heaven above

                                  I sip my tea infused with love

Valsa George Date: 1/13/2023 7:33:00 PM Will you share one cup of tea with condiments of rose and love? It sounds so delectable.... ! What ever is given with love is priceless. Lovely poem, dear sweet friend. Wish you a happy weekend. Login to Reply Bj Legros Kelley Date: 1/15/2023 5:31:00 PM :) <3 of course Valsa! It really is a gentle tea, the properties of rose petals have long been thought to help with a broken heart, and it is so gentle :) I wouldn't want to use roses for tea from a normal bouquet from the grocery store because they wouldn't be organic, the pesticides would be harmful. For organic petals, here is a recipe for your cup of tea :) 1 tsp. of dried rose petals in an 8 oz mug of hot water. Let it set for about nine or ten minutes, and sweeten it with love, or honey :) Honestly, love is sweeter than honey <3 Enjoy your tea my sweet friend! <3

Victor Buhagiar Date: 1/3/2023 2:22:00 AM Indeed love is infused with grateful heart. This should complement the poem I wrote today in opposite direction. Login to Reply Bj Legros Kelley Date: 1/3/2023 3:40:00 AM I came over and read your poems Victor, they are so incredibly beautiful. I feel so blessed by the love my husband and children have lavished on me through this sad time of loss. I read online that rose petals are an ancient medicinal botanical which can actually relieve a broken heart, and I find it has eased my heartache. Of course, the love and compassion shown to me through my husband and my children, have infused a more powerful healing touch through these beautiful and powerful botanical gifts <3 I am so grateful to them, and to God for blessing me so very much. I wish you much joy and love in the new year of 2023 Victor <3
