Active delights of the orange evergreen
Citrus curdles with curling leafs
Universally an utmost English classic
Pleasant in presence
Original bergamot overwhelms the
Fight against anxiety
Eagerly paints an
Amber sunset within a cup
Righteous as the loving
Legend of a Chinese Mandarin
Gentle: Earl Grey is a blue cornflower
Radiant: Earl Grey is an ebony emperor
Earnest: Earl Grey is a scarlet scholar
Youthful: Earl Grey is a golden god
All the love you could ever hope for
Condensed in a country mansion
Universally adored
Perhaps we should rob a rank and get it
Of course, what a splendid idea.
For we could sip Earl Grey tea all day.
Ernest, that’s too evil, we should
All work hard and
Reach our goals honestly using all our
Love.
Glorious weather out there,
Right now, makes a change.
Earl’s been complaining about the rain.
You can’t do anything about it.

The Bird Nest
Downy tufts puff out, Warmth inside a house of hair, Drowsiness abounds. A/N: I sometimes imagine what it would be like to sleep in a bird nest, provided I can be bird-sized in the fantasy of course. I think it would be cosy! More longer stories to come! -TWW
