Teapot Tuesday

6 Comments/ 1700/ 1

I am still pulling those miniature tea sets out of the photo archives and today I am sharing another cute teeny tiny set that makes me smile when I look at it.  I think you will smile as well.  Who doesn’t love penguins?

The Seven Cups of Tea
The first cup caresses my dry lips and throat,
The second shatters the walls of my lonely sadness,
The third searches the dry rivulets of my soul to find the stories of five thousand scrolls.
With the fourth the pain of past injustice vanishes through my pores.
The fifth purifies my flesh and bone.
With the sixth I am in touch with the immortals.
The seventh gives such pleasure I can hardly bear.
The fresh wind blows through my wings
As I make my way to Penglai~Lu Tong 790-835

    Some day, if you ever have granddaughters, they are going to love playing with these mini tea sets.
