For any Grand parent.
Sharing some Tea She sits alone in the shade of a tree Pretending to sip her own cup of tea Her tutu’s so fine and lined with braid With butterfly wings that nanna made. Small china tea set coloured with flowers At grandad’s table she’ll play for hours Chairs for her that were made with love Curious robins watch from above. Not really alone, her friends are all there Simba the lion and Benny the bear Molly the dolly dressed so refine Penny the penguin she holds all the time. Milky white skin so soft and smooth The wildest beast her voice could soothe Sparkling eyes that shine so bright Having you here is pure delight. Happily playing, so full of innocence Moving about with total eloquence Turning to blow your grandad a kiss Makes me proud my cheeky Miss. You ask me to join ‘n share a “hot” drink Approaching the table I give a big wink Under this tree our laughter it echoes I tickle your feet right under your toes. Now on my lap you give a big hug Then plant a kiss on my old bearded mug These days I’ll remember with feelings of glee Sharing some tea in the shade of a tree. David J Delaney 10/03/2009 ©
