TEA-KU

 

Spot of tea in hand

English girl on the tele

divinity found

 

 

a dash of sugar

an infidel takes two lumps

purists recoil

 

 

didn’t raise my pinky

lovely yet subtle flavor

dancing on my tongue

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

the first two of these haiku appear in Tea-Ku poems about tea.  I included all three because I love all my children--even the ones that disappoint me.
