Morning Tea Leaves
Steam rises from my mug
I close my eyes and reflect
Breathing in the notes of lavender
Losing myself in the land
Where these leaves were harvested
I know they breathed the mountain air
Every time I sip, I breathe it, too
Tastes of lands far away
Dance on my tongue
My body is warmed
My head space is clear
I am ready to begin my day
And take the mountain leaves with me
