Cup of Tea
woke up
one of those dark –
winter mornings
a cup of tea
is my calling
the simple pleasures in life
need to be enjoyed
i look out of the window
and I feel buoyed
a cup of tea
is just about right
i turn over the page
i turn on the light
i sit down
and I take it all in
winter is here
and it is a cold day
but its crispness
almost steals me away
a cup of tea
and it is fine
put the bag in the cup
and the milk, feels sublime
cosy up and think ahead
a hot cup of tea
that is all that needs to be said
James Garratt – Monday 12th October 2009
