A cup of tea with me

This morning it's cinnamon stick with stevia, steeped to deliciousness.
My way of gentlely nudging myself into a new day.

\
Tea cup to my lips
Enjoying each sip of warm
possibility

Taste of cinnamon,
deep breath of its aroma
nurturing my soul

Tea ceremony
to get in touch with my core
and beautiful day

    cinnamon
    DOES nourish ones soul!
    simply smelling cinnamon
    sends me down the Memory Road
    to Goodness...

    after all these yummy Tea words
    i find my own cup empty
    and
    must go down to the kitchen
    to make more...

    i shall hunt for something
    with a cinnamon twist
    in your honor,
    in honor of your Tea Haiku...

    perfection!

    What a delightful morning ritual to get the day started. I usually have tea, but you seem to have thoughtful and memorable tea...a much better idea!

    tea has a way of entering one's heart and never leaving... a wonderful companion to comfort indeed... my mom always put cinnamon sticks in her coffee... and when it began to slow boil...
