have a sip of tea

have a pot of tea.

imagine sipping from a warm pot of tea.

when you take that first sip,

what type of tea did you imagine drinking?

is it light?

bitter?

sweet?

was the flavor,

a delicate blend of chamomile and honey?

soothing your senses with its gentle sweetness?

'cause in a world transformed by a pandemic,

a pot of tea became a sanctuary.

its warmth embraced us,

a refuge from realities.

throughout the pandemic,

our lives transformed in unpredictable ways.

in that tranquil moment,

dreams are woven into reality.

dreams intertwined with reality,

a tapestry woven with hope and hardship.

so did you dream a dream?

'cause we did.

ever wonder how one pandemic has changed all of us.

for the better or not,

it depend.

across digital landscapes,

crossing oceans.

we found solace in newfound friendships from corners of the world we'd never have explored otherwise.

new friendships blossomed,

transcending borders,

defying oceans.

oceans were crossed,

not just in miles but in experiences shared.

we navigated this uncharted territory,

how was yours like?

ours was wild.

our shared journey wild and untamed.

some said sometimes it takes ten years to get that one year that changes your life,

ours did.

let me tell you our story for CreateTogether.

and you can decide on what you think.

in a distance embraced by viral gloom,

two hearts grapple, a tale to resume.

love's yearning, a silent refrain,

missing shared meals, a longing pain.

through screens, they seek a magic spell,

virtual nights where emotions swell.

government's decree, a rigid hand,

no parties, no leaving, in a strict command.

midst the wild beast, a wild soul's plight,

an airline job lost, shadows alight.

severance, a specter, haunts her mind,

prayers echo, hopes in the virtual bind.

care packages sent, a distant plea,

yet delivery doubts hang ominously.

friendship blooms in a virtual space,

picnics and hikes, connections trace.

locks of beauty fall with grace,

a shared worry, whose will face?

in a world where tomorrow's uncertain,

thankful hearts, no tragic curtain.

borders open, a chance to unite,

from Mexico's call, they take flight.

a reunion scripted like a sitcom's race,

running, tears, joy on their face.

not the kitty, but the birdy first to weep,

nove's tale in Frost's rhythm, deep.

amidst trials and hopes that linger,

love endures, a resilient singer.

from Hong Kong's embrace to Australia's shore,

a fairytale dream, but feelings adore.

in the aftermath of all that transpired,

iove's flame flickers, and hope's inspired.
