Tea Reflections
Grandmas kitchen was quaint
Quiet, quintissential
Simplicity of times
Taken with quality
Over excessively
Bit and brack-full cupboards.
Cozy winter nights
Were overheated
Till claustrophobic
With indoor temps high
In the mid 80s.
Then memories
Return to nows
Neither bitter
Nor sugary.
Falls forests
Are colored
Brighter hues,
Deep blued
Calm clear
Sky.

I only knew one of my grandmothers. Did not know my grandfathers at all. Anyway, to pause and reflect over a cup of tea on a pleasant Fall day is essential food for good poesy thoughts. Thanks for reading!!

Reflection in a window with Tea
Right before the sunset starts
Some beautiful magic imparts
Pink and orange will reflect
cup of tea to soothe the body before the night
Far distant windows start to glow
Like fire sparkling they throw
Reflections of tea tothe body
While the sunlight now grows dimmer
The houses seem to be alive
Imaginations then contrive
The windows talk with bright eyes
From blue to violet turn the skies
We sit here for the twilight hour
In a late sunlight shower
Fortunate that we watch the same
In our hearts a reflecting flame

The windows talk with bright eyes
From blue to violet turn the skies
We sit here for the twilight hour
In a late sunlight shower
Fortunate that we watch the same
In our hearts a reflecting flame
