Default Tea haiku

Oolong steam rises,
Entwines midnight cricket song -
Rejoicing spirits.

Rejoicing spirits.
Enjoying the ceremony
Revived by pu-erh.

Default Tea haiku

It was a dark and stormy night when Tom stepped out of the alley
onto "rec.food.drink.tea" and cried out:

Oolong steam rises,
Entwines midnight cricket song -
Rejoicing spirits.


Rejoicing spirits.
Enjoying the ceremony
Revived by pu-erh.


And for the more mundane among us:

Early morning tea
Can't get through the day without
Liquid of the gods

Revived by pu-erh,
the autumn cold leaves my mind
as the day begins.

tripped the light fantastic, then quipped:

Sipping morning tea
I reflect on yesterday
And wait for today
