Tea Time With Gran
How I recall tea with Gran.
The bubbling pot The silver ball Full of fragrant leaves Steeping… steeping… Pretty saucers Matching cups Linen napkins Finger cakes Silver service Fancy tray Table cloth gleaming white Time to serve Sugar cubes Honey drizzle A splash of milk perhaps Just black Tentative sips Gently clinks Of stirring spoons And passed plates of treats Tea is tradition So tasty and fun I always looked forward To tea time at Gran’s
