WOW, Connie ... you sure thought outside the box with this one ... I find if the words are arrange just right a tiny poem can be much bigger than she appears ... like a sip from a hot cup of tea. I bet this took a bit of thought to get the spacing just right ... excellent!

I used to be a coffee drinker in my youth but found out the caffeine in my coffee was causing migraine headaches after 21 years, so now I drink unleaded tea. Cheers, Connie

I just adore this. Of course, I though coffee rather than tea, but that's neither here nor there. Very creative, would like a t-shirt with that on it ... CayCay

I used to drink coffee but the caffeine gives me migraines. I drink a great healing tea now called Cho-wa that has some green tea in it with a lot of great other ingredients. I am happy you enjoyed my little cup of tea so much. Thanks a lot. XXOO Connie
