Tea and Biscuits Taste Best in the ‘Ber Months
Listen ...
Crisp orange leaves and
breath in the air
tightly knotted scarves
and matted hat hair
iced numb fingers
and toe tingling feet
bubbles in the kettle
and a tin full of treats
peel off layers
and snuggle in tight
crunch, dunk and crummmmmmble
settle in for the night.
breath in the air
tightly knotted scarves
and matted hat hair
iced numb fingers
and toe tingling feet
bubbles in the kettle
and a tin full of treats
peel off layers
and snuggle in tight
crunch, dunk and crummmmmmble
settle in for the night.
