It steams up warming my face,
Filling my heart with joy,
Serenity in a glass,
Like a soft dog pressed against a boy.
Paired with a peanut butter chocolate treat,
It hits the spot right, bullseye center,
Releasing the breath I am restraining,
Deflating the strain near my scarlet letter.
Little comforts in this life,
Add up to more meaning than seen at first glance,
I am thankful for tea and a treat,
The way the plant soaks up the sun's rays on a cold winter day.
