You and I are great souls.
And we come together for a time.
We meet over a cup of tea here on earth.
Shall we leave our shell and join with each other?
Shall we put down our shield and armor?
What will become of us if we do?
What horrible fate awaits us if we are defenseless?
Tea is a time for love and tenderness without fear.
It is a time for sharing and learning and growing.
Come now, leave the battle gear behind.
Brave with me and let’s have tea.
No Need for Armor by Earlene Grey

Thank you for the lovely poem (in the shape of a gaiwan or teapot, too!) and the link to an interesting tea site. I love the poet’s name (pseudonym?)!
Wonderful.
Such tenderness can come from tea only.
