Those Days Of Tea With Honey

Those days of tea with honey Disappeared into eternity No more popping the kettle on Sharing life over a cup of tea No more chatting for hours Laughing until we cried Singing silly made up songs Constantly…. side by side Oh , how I miss those days of tea with honey Such a simple special time All that remains is two empty cups Sacred memories of mine!

Dear Deb, This is such a heartfelt tribute to cherished moments shared over a simple cup of tea. Your poem beautifully captures the nostalgia and longing for the companionship and laughter that once filled those moments. The scene of two empty cups symbolizes the void left behind and serves as a vessel for sacred memories. This is full of beauty and friendship and the preciousness of shared moments. - Blessings, Daniel

When I read your beautiful poem, Deb, a taste of honey came to mind. Your Mum will be smiling and very proud of you. What a lovely close bond you have. Take care, Old Duck XX

A lovely write, Deb. In my mind it relates to your mum but could just as easily be a lost friend or even a friend who has moved away. Whichever it may be, it works beautifully. Terry

Ah deb, this is such a heartfelt poem as always from your soul, that depicts nostalgia and memories and how evocative is the way you’ve expressed here too. I especially love the ending… speaking of tea… whats your fave? I have my faves depending on mood too. “ All that remains is two empty cups Sacred memories of mine!” This hits so hard and strong for me! Just felt this. Sending you light always
