Mint Tea n' Summer

The sweet sacred juice that flowed from the homegrown mint leaf was utterly delightful. The home of the hardworking family which abides on such a residence was full of kindness and hospitality. A good laugh and funny joke was usually poked until everyone had some sort of grin on their face. Dark black tea was combined with the minty water. Steam rose as the flavors swirled and danced together to create a splendid sip of summer. The plants outside oozed with summer's awakening. The strong pulling scent of cut grass gripped your nose. The garden contained assortments of a hungry stomach's goodies. They took the fresh vegetables and what one could say was the "champagne of mint tea" and gladly shared it with me.
