Care for a Cup of Blooming Tea?





I love blooming teas! Steeped flowers that bloom in hot water.



There is something so elegant...



So artistic...too beautiful to drink.



Just tea for two.
And two for tea.
Just one for you.
And you for me.







I'm a little teapot,
short and stout,
here is my handle,
here is my spout.




When you see the tea cup,
.... hear me shout -
tip me over,
and pour me out!



Tranquil. Timeless. Tea.





"Serenity is a cup of blooming tea, tasting of nature, and being lost in reverie." ~gina
