I wish you were a tea bag
I'd drop you in the hot hot water
and see how strong you really are
while you soak into the new atmosphere.
Then, I'd savor your rich rich flavor
Something pure my taste buds would favor.
I'd absorb every sense, every detail, every spice
that brings you to life.

All natural, of course
Sugar? Let's not be hasty.
Let's keep it raw.

You'd empower my morning
a little cup of bliss.
Your heat would comfort my fingertips
and I'd bask in the warmth--
yes even in the summer sun.

And you'd be a unique little concoction,
unlike any I've ever known.
Unlike Lipton, you wouldn't make my stomach churn.
No, quite the opposite,
you'd make this little heart yearn.
