Notes About The Poem

A Tea Party For Friends

A Tea Party for Friends
I’m having a tea party for some friends To celebrate friendship that never ends There's three cats, one dog and my teddy bear He’s the one who’s sat on his tiny chair. Mommy provided her poshest tea set It’s made from fine bone china of the best Cats lap up milky tea, not so the dog He will drink it as it comes from the pot. I have dog and cat biscuits for a treat Teddy and I’ll eat cake sugary sweet Then when we have had sufficient to eat We’ll put on music and dance on our feet. Finishing the party with a sing-song With mom joining in and singing along Soon it’s come time for an afternoon nap We all fall asleep right there on the mat.

Code word: CASS = Cute, Adorable, Sweet (as) Sugar. What a delightful mix of ingredients in this poem. Shirley Temple would have been proud! Super contest entry, Belle! Excelsior! ~ Gershon

Oh this is so cute, and your mom must have been a very special mom also. Your love for nature, animals and the wild, comes out early in your life in this glimpse of your life you share with us, for even if fiction, I'm certain that real times like this one were had. Lovely write my friend, love and hugs, Jennifer.

Hi Jennifer. quite right my mom was special, in spite of having five daughters and times being tough, she made sure we didn’t miss any of the childhood things that children enjoy. Hugs with love… Belle

This is very sweet Belle. I fell in love with this pic . It's a nice challenge to look at a picture and create a poem about what you see. As they say, a picture speaks a thousand words. Lovely warm poem.

Daft mother presenting bone china to pets, but your last line is certainly a wrap! Enjoyed!

Daft mother maybe, but some just love animals and give them the best of everything, you see. Thank you Rico… Belle
