Gratitude along with Tea cake


Tit for Tat
An eye for an eye
Short on little gestures of gratitude
…Grace and compassion
…Mirth and kindness
Adulation and admiration seeking only
Outward facing
Stamping on everything that grows in its shade!
Too much shade
Can be a trial
To have a pot of tea, and a tea cake
To soothe a set of nerves
Frayed...and hanging by it tendrils
The wafting smell, flavours of the teacake...just enough 
Gratitude in little ways
A little man's love...to aspire to
