X Ways of Looking at a Teacup


Filled with tea

Hot coco and coffee

Warms you up on the unbearable days

They serve as protection to the icy temperature.

 

A holder for trinkets,

A decorative way of displaying, your precious objects

Whilst staying organised and ordered.

 

Years of use and multiple abuse

The chipped and cracked antique teacup

Now holds its place.

Soon to be packed up with a million other, seemingly  useless things,

Only to gather dust.

 

Found in a dusty box

Placed away perhaps for safe keepings

Only to have is passed down for a child to dress up and reinact

Her wild imagination.

 

Tossed alongside with the mismatched crockery,

The tea party commences

Mad hatter and all

The water in place of actual tea

Her youth disallowing her from the scalding hot liquid.

 

Chipped from countless amounts of tea parties

The mad hatter was soon disinvited.
