Angela Tian

Drink tea by adding boiling water to leaves.

Vapor pervades the air.

Veil covers the reality.

Color of calmness suffuse one’s eyes.

Start with bitterness,

End with sweetness.

Like life,

In the age of vigor. Most sensitive to displeasure.

When carrying a weak body, finding the sweat in it.

Tea is just tea. Water without taste.

Like history,

Passing the ebb and flow.

Returning to peace.

As time goes on. The tastier the tea.

After it’s time, taste will be gone.

Like passion,

Eager seize one. Proportional to time.

So try it when it’s. Still in one’s heart.

Tea how amazing!

A drink! Contains polyphenols for one’s health.

A think! Holds Tao to ultimate reality.

A link! Involves oneself and natural universe.

When one looks in, tea will reflect.

From natural to life.

From all to null.

From tangible to vague.

Tea is still tea. Couple leaves in water.
