Lavender and Camellia Tea

The teas that bring on sleep
Are lavender  and camellia
Some people enjoy lavender
          tea
It has an unique taste I tried it once
          and enjoyed 
I love the scent of the tea
I also like the plant that
         is grown
I buy it every summer
Watering it with love

The camellia tea
Is a tea like no other
It helps to make you
        sleep
It has an unique taste
I like the scent
If lavender tea is not
     found
I drink camellia tea
both teas work for me
Lavender tea nw hard to 
     find
So i drink camellia tea

Funny how I should be preoccupied with both Chinese and Japanese poetry at this moment...and lo and behold -- this poem! It has a most distinct oriental flavour about it, Darlene...in fact, all the poetry I am choosing to read today seems to so have. This particular one really is very good! In fact, good enough to be published. Love it!! All my very warmest regards, Darlene. Your friend. :) john P.s and a very happy Easter!
