Darjeeling

The china is Haviland Limoges, Violets and Daisies.
My grandfather's china, which I inherited and treasure.
I rise
I dance
Amber is my color
Lifting the cup
You sip
I swirl in your mouth
You rejoice with the flavor
You sing a new song
I am here to delight you
My cup runneth over
Joy in a cup
Camellia Sinensis
~m.miller

Each Spring this is my song when I receive my new order
of Spring Darjeelings.
This morning I am sipping Arya PTGFOP1 Classic Premium (DJ-7),
a first flush for 2017 from Thunderbolt Tea.
The color reminds me of oolong,
but the flavor is different.
It is the freshness of Springtime.
A floral, fruity flavor which reminds me of early
Springtime when new growth is just beginning to appear.
With the beginning of each Spring I anticipate a new Darjeeling
in my cup and am never disappointed with the beauty of this tea.
