Yesterday a child came out to wonder
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
And tearful at the falling of a star
Then the child moved ten times round the seasons
Skated over ten clear frozen streams
Words like when you're older must appease him
And promises of someday make his dreams
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look
Behind from where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

'Time, you old Gypsy man....'
Good morning, everyone! Bright and sunny outside, but feeling old inside. Need more tea to get my engine started this morning. I found a tin of Jackson's of Piccadilly's 'English Breakfast' tea yesterday, a tea I used to enjoy but haven't seen in a while. It' will like stepping back into my past.

Yep! Just as I said. 'Mid-life Crisis!' Next he'll be swapping his morning coat for a psychedelic tie-dyed T-shirt, and forsaking wife and kids for his 23-year old secretary!

Oolongs are good for multiple steepings. Some folks here keep the same pot going all day!

Does this suppose that old fashioned water is different (but not necessarily better or worse) than new modern water?
Jackson's still has the plot! Good tea, but I think this tin may be a bit old... I need to do some research on the company...
