"Tea" When the elephant's-ear in the park
Shrivelled in frost,
And the leaves on the paths
Ran like rats,
Your lamp-light fell
On shining pillows,
Of sea-shades and sky-shades
Like umbrellas in Java.
Shrivelled in frost,
And the leaves on the paths
Ran like rats,
Your lamp-light fell
On shining pillows,
Of sea-shades and sky-shades
Like umbrellas in Java.
~Wallace Stevens - 1915
I have become such a HUGE fan of your site! Keepup the great work.
ReplyDeleteI want one (or two)of those tea cups!!
The eerie mask faces are fabulous, and those teacups are divine. Great finds!
