Mommy's Tea

Red Tea

“There is no trouble so great or grave that cannot be much diminished by a nice cup of tea”

Isn't Father purported to help his son?

Vociferated I to poor father.

Hapless and Old and trying to gather.

Bang! Slam! Demoed my angst and did I stun.

Cried a soundless cry, gone with the setting sun;

The night is sleepless, mind's hit and pother.

Do away with the gap, pondered Mother-

All go to bed while Mother bakes the bun.

I see in the morn dad smiled at his boy-

Sipping tea through the cup he looks at me;

The feelings inside, abasement or joy?

The sun is overhead said he with glee.

It's a wonder what mother's tea has done-

A family we are, we'll stay as one.
