Tea

Starting
With grains of sand
Supporting 
In a cup

Pouring water
Over 
Till there is no trace
But murky brown

Top with sweetness
Sugar or condense milk
Smoothing the edges
Bottom to up

Showing its sign of life
Out of darkness

Stirs and spins
Spoon gathering all
To different places and dimensions
Given the lives 
We are suppose to live
Greater than we can imagine

New tastes to explore
New sights to see

How small we are
With the will to adapt and change
Becoming the best of ourselves

Cheers...
