Black Tea

How do you like your tea?

Fresh from the kettle,

Or brewed in arctic conditions?

Milk, cream, butter or plain?

Sugar, honey or sweet enough?

With the bubbles or without the bubbles?

A dash of honey?

A slice of lemon?

A squeeze of lime?

Angelic apples thrown in?

How about a mango?

If you're feeling adventurous,

Maybe mayonnaise,

Or spray from cocoa?

We could even add broccoli

For an adventurous catastrophe!

They started adding fizzy drinks in teas now!

Let's throw some whisky, beer or Baileys in it.

"Oh do shut up! All I want is a normal cup of tea!"
