Afternoon Hour

The hour strikes three,
It's time for tea,
A perfect moment for a break,
Perhaps a slice of cake...

Sipping in cups with a silver gleam,
Piping teacups quivering with steam,
A sweet treat will make anyone beam,
Perhaps a pastry with some cream?

A spoon of sugar and some milk,
Folded napkins made of silk,
Buttered scones to enjoy with a friend,
Early grey, Ceylon or perhaps a blend?

Enjoy the flavour,
Savor the hour,
Hear the bell chime,
For its teatime.







Enjoy the flavour,Savor the hour,Hear the bell chime,For its teatime
