Short Teapot Poems

a messy matron
polishes the silver--
the teapot whistles...

after she has gone

the teapot still full and warm

now empty...

A loving caress
kissing as the teapot steeps

teapots and teacups,

the aroma of coffee,

and the day's hustle....

The large blue teapot,
Used for special occasions,
And platters of cakes;
A gathering of friends
Sharing stories, sharing lives....

Breakfast starts
and coffee brews,
cat gets milk
and tender chews.
Oatmeal, eggs,
a fruity riot,
teapot whistles,
house still quiet....

darkness, Eventide
bronze teapot whistles
spiced warmth, outside, snow

sound of rain falling
through long January night-
under warm blankets

face in the mirror
reflects yet another year-
the teapot steaming...

When he is whistling
He is so hot -- and
when he is steamed ~
I desire a sweet taste of him
Was it your beloved?
No my dear it was my teapot!...

I have a soft spot
For my special decanter
Halloween teapot
Where I create my hot tea
And my great hot chocolate

Tea Pot
I live in a teapot 
It is big enough for me
I spend a lot of time making tea
People would see and say POUR me 
The love I find are in the blends I bind and mind...

nothing much to see here
miniature ethereal faerie boy
sharing a decorated porcelain teapot
with baby runt of the litter kitty,
world problems solved in an hour

                   the woodstove burning
                    has the teapot singing
                     rocking chair swaying

Steam
rises
in billows
from the kettle
and as the teapot
whistles, I pour water
over the Earl Grey tea bags
into mother's porcelain cups.
Do you prefer a squeeze of lemon?
Or milk and sugar?  Here! Have a cookie!!...

This teapot, chipped and faded,
brings memories so dear,
of friendships made and secrets shared,
while sipping its fine brew.
This teapot chipped and faded.

I'm home from the war.
I throw my kit down,
piss in the sink,
kick the cat,
smash the fine china teapot,
order you to stop hiding,
threaten to kill your mother,
demand sex with the babysitter.
My stiff face screams:
I love you....

The square teapot designed like a wood stove

Admired by the delicate painted rose teapot

When his water comes to steam in the alcove

Rose sings soprano harmonizing on the spot

Such a friendship cannot be forgot...

Curtains opened
each fold two inches apart
Waiting for the arrival
Cushions neatly plumped
Dust off the mantelpiece
Fluff off the floor
Cucumber Sandwiches on the table
Tea in the Teapot
Knock at the door
On time I see
It's quarter past four...

In our palace lives a bot
    Quite a finicky task it has got

  Thrice daily removes every single spot
    from the royal server -- the '10-2-4' teapot  

  Our bot makes that teapot shine and sparkle
    in case you-know-who returns ~ Ms. Markle...

Muddy waves, foam and the storm
All settled in my teapot
As nature stirring outside
My own spoon rustling inside
Will all settle in due time?

Winter Tea
                     


                       Darkness, eventide 
                       A singing teapot whistles
                       Enjoying spiced air!

I loved you once, Jenny Teapot,
Until that love turned sour.
You poured the finest Yorkshire Tea,
On the hour, every hour.
But the love we had, went off the boil,
In a most disappointing way.
Betrayed by your affections,
For Darjeeling, Assam and Earl Grey....

Teapot






Hymns a sweet morning will sing,
As teapot pours freshness,
In bowl of great antiquity,
To start the day with zing,
Hymns a sweet morning will sing.

Cold steel in tempest.
Turn of the screw.
Long night desires;
Your eyes are afire.
Blades sharp…
Time conspirers
Ill will of heart
Eyes burn at imagery.
Winds cool the soul.
Eons turn and stop…
A Tempest in a steel teapot.
Scream the razored heart
Full of blackened
Mechanical parts…...

I will love you forever
Whether you love me or not
If my life is an airplane
Will you be my co-pilot?
Baby I feel so cool and
You look totally red hot!
You can make me happy and
Keep me warm like a teapot!
Baby I need you so much
You keep coming in my thought!
If I don’t see you one day
Baby I miss you a lot!...
