Tea And Rolls

They say a cup of tea is good for you,

As it can bring rest to a busy day.

Some little crumpets dipped in it,

Is a delight I look for each day.

 

Every Sunday morning as a kid,

I'd have my tea and fresh rolls.

Dunk the rolls in the hot tea,

And lavish at its delighful taste.

 

Seems I grew out of the habit,

As tea was replaced with a cup of Jo.

No more dunking biscuits or rolls-

Always, it seems, I'm on the go.

 

Still I like, now and then,

To sit and have a cup of tea.

Reminisce of days gone bye,

When rolls and tea were part of me.

IT'S WONDERFUL TO TAKE GOOD TRIPS DOWN MEMORY LANE AND IT'S EVEN BETTER WHEN ONE CAN STILL ENHANCE OUR MEMORIES FROM YESTERDAY, EVEN MORE, BY GRABBING SOMETHING THAT'S STILL AROUND TODAY. THANK YOU, GEORGE. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

I can reminisce about the same. Although I often dunked (in my youth, and mostly with coffee), and drank tea of various kinds, I seem to have fallen out of that habit like you.
