Afternoon tea gone wrong

green and jasmine,
mild brew, refreshing;
great afternoon drink; a
touch of lemon, & some
ginger, so delicious! Ice
cubes melting to a perfect
temperature, paper straw,
red and white (you just like
straws) awaiting lip contact,
exactly the way you want it!
Friend pats you on the back,
 nice gesture, tea goes flying
in the air! All gone! Spills
onto uncle, he jumps
up and a
branch
falls
where
uncle
was
sitting!
Sticky
uncle
hugs
you,
and puts you
into his will. He’s only 5 years
older than you, still a nice day
