A Cup of Tea and Thee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a cup of tea and quiet time with Thee....
the steam ascends, a fragrant, misty grace,
a moment held within our shared, sacred space.
each sip a prayer, a whispered, heartfelt plea,
to feel Your presence, close and near to me.
the world outside may rush and spin and sway,
but in this cup, I find You here today.
the amber liquid warms me from within,
erasing shadows of regrets and remembered sin.
I sip the warmth, and feel Your presence near,
dispelling shadows, calming my fears.
in every drop, a grace I understand,
a gentle guiding from Your loving hand.
when the cup is drained, the silence starts to grow,
but in my heart, Your peaceful presence flows.
