My husband brews terrible tea So I asked him repeatedly To pre warm the pot With water that's hot But he never listened to me! I admit I should not be rude But his tea tasted dreadfully stewed T'was bitter and brown Each cup made me frown He said I showed no gratitude! So I embarked on a crusade And purchased a shiny teasmaid It makes the perfect brew There is plenty for two I’m delighted I made the upgrade! 2/24/18 TOTAL FICTION POEM!
