Tea's got a way...

So many things I need to get done
Abundant assignments plaguing my mind
I am counting on the way of tea to help me unwind
Encountering tatami - my journey has begun.
The sound of water pouring slow
Invites a sense of summer to come
It reminds me of a juicy plum
Or playing in the ocean - something I'll never outgrow.
I experience joy as though I am free
Just like birds flying in the summer air
I feel the warmth of July on my sun-bleached hair
I look down - I see green tea.
The guest recites exactly what they are scripted to say
As I penetrate reality to finish the day.
