Would You Like Some Tea?

Recently my life has been very dark and difficult, and at the dawn of my 29th birthday, I'd like to share with you all some of the most important lessons from this period in my life. This is poem about how the comfort of tea can keep us grounded during hard times and reminds us of the many positive constants in our life we often forget. Tea being one of those constants. During this challenging time I have been turning to tea to center my sanity, avoid alcoholism, and be the comfort of home when there is no home. It's a love poem for tea and hopefully an inspiring poem of knowing the way even in times of hopelessness and feeling lost. 

 


Would You Like Some Tea?

By Amanda J Khan

 

Would you like some tea?

For when this feeling of lost isn’t worth the cost

Would you like some Tea?

 

For when you fail

And feel like you'll never prevail

Would you like some Tea?

 

When you feel alone

And can’t define where’s home

Would you like some tea?

 

Another year gone by in a hurry

Gobbled up like all the curry

Would you like some tea?

 

You have delivered you to where you are

And while you know the destination is far

Would you like some tea?

 

Because you know the way

Do not dismay

Drink some tea
