READING TIME
Welcome back to another Literacy Musing Mondays linkup! We are so glad you are here and hope you enjoy reading, commenting and sharing your own blog posts with us. There is no guest poster this week, so I’d like to share a poem I wrote a couple of years ago. It’s called Tea Time, Reading Time.
In our house we have tea time every afternoon. That tradition was started when my children were younger. We would often read books aloud together as we sipped our tea. Now my kids are grown and most are out of the house, but we still occasionally enjoy tea time together over a good book or just good conversation.
Often a nice cup of tea is perfect when I need to relax and take a break. Hope you enjoy the poem and maybe even have your own cup of tea!
Tea Time, Reading Time
Tea time, reading time
Transported to other lands
Imaginations soar
Precious time together
Tea time, good friend time
Intimate conversations
Kind, encouraging words
Sharing tears and laughter
Tea time, lovely time
A daily welcomed respite
Savoring every sip
As tensions slip away

I love your “Tea Time” poem, Gayl — it makes me think of all my dear college friends and how we’ve always loved to share a cup of tea and conversation!
Thanks, Pam! Glad to have brought some good memories to mind. 🙂 Blessings to you!
