Write a poem or letter about your best memory of 2024 6 months ago Tea, Strength, and Spring '24
AmbitiousBMarieIn Philly’s vibe, where art’s alive,
Two friends meet, their spirits thrive.
Orange and black, red and white,
Colors dancing in the Sculpture Yard’s light.“What’s The Tea?” we came to see,
Where flavors soothe and set hearts free.
Tea like coffee, bold yet sweet,
A soulful moment, a perfect retreat.We spoke of power, women’s strength,
Of building bridges, going great lengths.
A sound bath wrapped us in dreams untold,
Spring’s fresh buds, life’s stories unfold.With strangers near, like Wonderland’s twist,
Sisterhood formed, a moment not missed.
Girl time healing, laughter flows,
In the simplest of acts, the magic grows.Always make time for tea, my dear,
A pause for love, for hope, for cheer.
In every sip, a spark can gleam,
In tea, we brew a brighter dream.Voting is closed
I don’t know if you are aware of this hidden ability Within what you’ve just written and released into the world. If you go back over each one understands us, similar to that of let’s say reflecting over Life Choices every 10 years, if you take that type of methodological framing in slow or differentiate the pace and how you reread each stanza, it hits differently and with deeper meaning each time I reread it. I don’t think I’ve ever been so happily perplexed and optimistically restored just to be near somebody else unafraid to smile and tell the tale of why that smiles not ever going anywhere. Thank you for sharing. I expect a continuance of great things!!!

Thanks so much, Lauren.
I hold my family and friends so close. They say everything can be discussed over tea, and I was definitely happy to be with my dear friend.
