That you, dear friend, can share with me?
While we wait for it to brew
We chat together, me and you.
There's no theme we can't discuss:
Why politics is so much fuss
The cost of living – sharp tax hikes
Should we abandon cars for bikes?
Emotions, some new family drama
The re-election of Obama
The grim futility of war
Refugees, the urban poor.
Meanwhile, our tea is piping hot
We pour it gently from the pot
And enjoy its calming, warm delight
Contemplating the world's plight...
Humans suffer, plagued with doubt;
How will the BREXIT deal work out?
What tricks has Nature up its sleeves?
Time perhaps to read - tea leaves ...

Lovely poem of the day.
