Let's Have A Proper... Poem?
Posted in Making A Proper Brew, Our Friends, Our News.
We're lucky enough to get lots of lovely letters and postcards from customers, but we got one today that was extra special.
Sophie, Jess, Olly, Tom and Luke from Langwith College at York university not only sent us a lovely thank you message full or praise for our properness, but they also added pictures, photos and this rather splendid poem:
Shall I compare thee to any other TEA...
Shall I compare thee to a cup of of Tetley tea,
Thou art more lovely and more temperate
A cup of you always makes me feel free
A teabag's lease hath all too short a date
Sometimes too hot the cup of heaven shines
But never is the gold complexion dimmed
Although every other tea sometimes declines
By chance or nature's changing course unhimmed
But thy eternal yumminess shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair taste thou hast
Nor shall PG brag thou wanderest in their shade
When in eternal cups thou taste grows
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see
So long we drink and value life from tea.
...
Aw. Thanks guys!
