I wake up early in the morning
And begin my slow journey up the stairs
I silently start setting up my tea
As the sun seeps through the blinds
Giving the room a lovely morning glow
I take my newly brewed cup of tea
And go sit on the steps just outside my house
The cool refreshing spring breeze intoxicates me
And it still smells of fresh rainwater from the night before
Small puddles scatter the road and yard
I can hear the croaking of toads
The singing of birds
My cup of tea kindly keeps my hands warm
The steam begins to fog my glasses
As a smile creeps onto my face
And I wonder
If you would have liked to share this moment with me
