Tea Cozy

By The Golden Pen

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

A crocheted table cloth was spread Over a finely walnut-colored table. The cloth sparkled with gilded thread. On the Stove a lovely song Penetrated the kitchen with its' melody The water danced in rhythm as it gaily sung along Miss Mary set the cups and saucers ceremoniously Taking dire care To match the china for this Special Afternoon Ceremony Silence did a great job of cutting the Tea cakes and pastries, And the sugar bowl and milk pitcher sat quietly in the midst While The Teapot bowed a timid bow at the Grand Tea Cake from Sal's Bakery At half past four the Master of the house came punctually With a bouquet of roses in hand And a present for the Mistress Mary Taking a seat, She, with outstretched hands did pour A cup of hot freshly brewed tea and served fresh cake and crumpets to her paramour.
