Lady Grey

Lady Grey

Lady Grey

She is a flamboyant elegant lady

Both in her looks, her taste and aroma

Her fresh loose leaves of freshly brewed tea

Just hit me

The aroma of her bergamot perfume

The black tea leaves with contrasting blue cornflowers

Only should be poured from a china teapot

Into a blue and white patterned china cup

Hot water not burning hot

Don’t burn Lady Grey’s beautiful tea

Mixed with lemon and orange peel

I love her teapot

Her beautiful dress and teapot lid

Her spoon and teabag accessories

She is a unique lady as is her tea

I know this

I know my loose tea leaves
