Nine Degrees Of Saturation
At her table near the window
she admires the soft light,
white china trimmed
with blue flowers,
the red teapot, a half dish
of raspberries and cream.
Unwinding snowy linen napkin,
a slight sigh of satisfaction
escapes as she delicately
nibbles butter cookies,
sips a cup of oolong tea.

a well described scene which tells much about the character within
Yes, please, may I have a cup, too? :D
Sounds divine, Marianne. Raspberries and cream...butter cookies. A virtual tea party.
I'm there. Nice job capturing the moment . . . and the light.
You've captured, in just a few words, a delicately pleasurable moment.

Time for thinking and reflecting.
Nice.
Thanks for your kind words and visit.
Love it, Marianne. Beautiful scene.

Marianne! Love the title and this piece. Great job.
I loved how the little personal pleasures of a solitary life shine through this piece. I felt myself unwind too just as she obviously did.
Lovely tea party. I appreciate her appreciation of this moment to nurture self.
Yes!! I know that feeling, though I never got that fancy. But just have that blessed feeling of peace.
I'm impressed how you were able to use the words so succinctly! Now, maybe I'll go have some tea...
