Bags Of Tea

With every kettle

We boil,

We find that 

Sipping the tea,

Doesn’t mean 

Burning from

It

Too.

We gossip

Like we change

Bags

Of tea:

Gossiping

By the cup,

And

Drinking

By

The

Teapot.

The power of

Tea

Is it can

Heal

As much

As

It

Could

Hurt

Us

Too.

Don’t let

It go cold,

Or it may lose

Its

Appeal.

But don’t

Let

It burn you

When you know

Partaking

In it

Is not worth

The

Heat

It holds.

We can gossip

All we want,

But it’s

Doing us

No good

If it makes

The lives

Of others

Worse.

We complain

And

We rejoice,

But the choice

We make

With how we

Brew

Our tea

Is a choice

That may

Soothe

Or burn

Not only us,

But others,

Eternally.
