This week I’m offering a gently steaming cup of tea (in poetic form) to soothe and restore you. May it ease your troubles and bring a smile to your face.

Sitting, drinking tea while watching the rain come wandering down
a smile brought on by cool breeze on misted skin
steam rising from the cup in front, the fragrant herbs steeping
and cascading come memories of other times
of once close people and far away places
and endless cups of tea
Have a lovely weekend, poetry friends!
Thank you for sharing. i love tea weather the best.
Love me some tea for sure. And the cascading memories.
Beautiful metaphor from a simple cup of tea, so many memories, warmth and calm. I’m ready for that cup of tea, thanks for this relaxing, layer poem Jane!
Hear, hear! I’ll raise my cup of tea to this! It is a lovely poem.
Lovely poem, Jane. I especially love “cascading come memories of other times. So perfect.
Love this. I could feel the steam as I read it. I’ve been drinking hot tea most of last week, but as it’s warming up, I’ll have to wait a few days to enjoy it again. Hot tea and memories…
Sitting in the cool morning, holding hands around that cup to warm them does bring the memories. Thanks, Jane, a wonderful moment in this poem.
What a lovely poem to send to friends….I’m sure many of us have our tea during Poetry Friday reading. I’ve missed you, friend. Good to see poetry here. Is it raining in BC? We need some this side of the continent. Send it soon.
Guess what I had brewing 2 minutes ago? I love tea and a good tea poem!
I’m drinking my morning cuppatea whilst I wander the PF roundup! Cheers!
What a warm, lovely poem! Thanks for sharing.
Lovely cup of steaming tea, the sound of rain and a poet-friend. The world is grand.
I’m having a cuppa and enjoying a waffle while my pup sits there and hopes I drop some. Thanks for bringing us this soothing moment! (And great photo!)
