How Do You like your Tea

Reflective poetry

I like to hold, feel and drink the beverage, like bonding with the drink itself.

How do you like your tea?

There could be endless ways: beginning from steaming hot to ice tea.

Tea in times long ago was drunk hot or warm

that was boiled and poured into ceramic cups that one could hold,

while the hands cupped the mug, its warmth seeped into the skin
