A Proustian Rich Tea Moment

Dipping you slowly in my tea,
evokes so much memory,
of long afternoons with Granny
or picnics by the sea,
of working as a labourer
and dunking desperately,
before my tea break's over
and the foreman shouts at me.

Your dry and crispy texture
is not quite the best,
and the sediment you leave
in my cup I really do detest.
Nonetheless in search of so much time lost
you have all the qualities to boost
our writing so much so,
it sounds like Marcel Proust.
