Notes About The Poem

Tea and Cakes

Tea and Cakes

The day is full of sunshine. 
The big tree is full of flowers, 
pink and gold blossoms of fairy fire. 
The time of the year? 
Spring.. perfect, and lovely. 

Come sit with me my friend. 
We will laugh under the branches, 
that are way up high. 
We will tell jokes and even sing, 
if we choose to be in the mood to do so. 
We will talk about yesterday, 
and pray together for tomorrow. 
The day will pass, 
as we count the bees, 
and the ladybugs, 
that come to visit... 
in the tall grass. 

The picnic will taste heavenly, 
marmalade and scones 
made of orange and rye. 
The lemonade goes down with ease. 
There is comfort... there is peace... 
we are spending time, well spent, 
on a dime's worth of moments, 
strung together to create a memory
we will both share forever. 

Pass me a plate, 
and the beautiful cake, 
made from fate, 
and seasoned with destiny. 
I am happy, you are here.

'made from fate,' 'seasoned with destiny.' Sigh! How memorable... Hope you invited the Queen Mother. She's probably had enough of the Jubilee by now. Time for her to return to the simple pleasures of life. ~ Prince Charming
