Take down the porcelain
The one with the pink petal
If it doesn’t suit you to use the metal. . .teapot
Don’t get your drawers in a nettle
It’s simple for us to settle
For tea from the hot kettle.

Ahh yes! Does it matter if we go fancy or simple and plain? (I have both.) What matters is the company and the sharing over a cup of tea! I enjoyed this well-written poem!

I enjoyed your poetic Six.
I am not familiar with the phrase “don’t get your drawers in a nettle, but I remember as a kid wearing shorts and being ever so careful not to brush against a patch of nettles growing by our creek.
