Book Description
Musings with a Cuppa - The Poetry of Tea is an invitation to experience the joy and serenity of a freshly brewed pot of tea, stirred and steeped just so, then blended perfectly with the wit and wisdom of captivating poetry. Since the introduction of the written word, poetry has been used to uniquely convey impressions of the ordinary as well as the extraordinary. It is only natural then that this form of writing should find its way into the elegance, subtlety and graciousness of taking tea. Musings With a Cuppa is a collection of original poems dedicated to those who not only understand the complexity of creating a fine cuppa, but who also appreciate the simplicity of its enjoyment. Although a product of the 20th century, each poem embodies the flavor and spirit of Edwardian England. From the very beginning of the first verse, the reader is taken back to the early 1900s where a gracious society was built on civility and decorum. Ms. Patterson whose nom du plume at times has been Earlene Grey, has a Bachelor of Arts in English and a Master's in Business Administration. She and her husband, James, live a quiet life in Oregon, USA. Please visit, www.EarleneGrey.com

Book Description
Heart to Heart Considered Sentiments for Tea Time is a collection of thoughts and verses not only suitable for tea time, but it is a book of sensibilities that are suitable for a life time. Just as special blends of tea contain delicious subtleties of taste, this book contains intriguing subtleties of insight and wisdom. Susan Patterson (aka Earlene Grey) writes of everyday life, sometimes lifting it to the spiritual, and sometimes grounding it to the practical. Heart to Heart is presented in a series of small trilogies. Each set of pages contains two Earleneisms (or "tea sips" as some like to say) and one poem. On the surface one might think that they are not connected. But if one considers and ponders a moment, the nuances of the message will come through. In addition, each reader may discover his or her own personal message, but after all, isn't that the point of poetry?

Book Description
Sweet Butter Tea is a collection of poems that spontaneously sprang from the most personal memories and childhood recollections of exiled Tibetan Ten Phun. Since his escape into India, Ten Phun has experienced a bewildering sense of loss, harrowing loneliness, as well as lively times in a borrowed space. This volume is peppered with eclectic images of confusion, nostalgia, and the poet's deep longing to be back in his home of Tibet. "I don't know how old my heart is, I only know my five-o'clock shadow tells it all," Ten Phun writes. This book of poetry promises a dizzying journey into a young adult refugee's struggles, dreams, and musings, all packed into bite-sized verses that grasp at truth and attempt to put into words the anguish of physical, emotional, and psychological dislocation.

Book Description
Theolinda M. Foster started writing poetry at fourteen years of age. She moved around the Midwest with family, attending different schools each year due to her step-fatheras work. At first, she wrote long pages filled with lines of where she was, what schools she had attended, and the friends she had made and been forced to leave as another job called for the family to again move. Quitting school to marry, Theolinda had two children by a first marriage. She earned her high school diploma at age fifty-two. Now sixty-six, the Indiana resident is still writing, drawing on her imagination and places she has been and places she would like to visit. Her inspiration comes from the place most important, her heart. aA gal that got lost in the fifties and still growing up.a She loves family, antique cars and her two Yorkshire terriers. aI wish everyone could be happy, healthy and able to whistle!a is her quote.
