Poetry Corner: My Cup of Tea

Call us


 

She would not sleep

Not even blink

She would not eat

Not even sip

She would not sing

Not even beep

She would only weep

And weep

 

A tear and a fear

A whisper in my ear

Just before she disappeared

A whisper I did really hear

A sigh

And then a bye

 

Until her last hello

She was mine alone

The only tea in my cup

The only sea I swam into her world of warmth

I wish I knew her

 

Until her last word

She was my singing nightingale

She cared so loud

Never to feel bored

She dared so loud

Ever to be heard

Now it was her last to be heard

I wish I knew her

 

Until her last day

She was my sweetest taste

The nights were longer

Even the days were brighter

All the days

My happiest days

Now it is goodbye to happy days

I wish I knew her

 

She began with invigorating preambles

As she served sizzling incredibles

I only retorted freezing horribles

Ending with chilling, bursting bubbles

I wish I knew her

 

In our tale of bitter-sweet

She was as sweet as honey

I was as bitter as gall

In our tale of luke-warm

She was as warm as the summer

I was as cold as the winter

I wish I knew her

 

A fear and a tear

She whispered in my ear

Just when she disappeared

A whisper I still hear

A sigh

And then a goodbye

 

That home without her

Was no home to me

I wish I knew

I wish I knew her

I wish I knew

The way to her heart
