Polite request, please dim your lanterns
Excuse me, I must have forgot my manners
Not a wedding planer, but tea time's another thing
Calling all those who hear the porcelain ring
The silver spoon brings with a gentle drum
Run these frilly napkins that erase glum
And grab a sugar cube, or nine if you prefer
Precisely heated water colored by herbs
Mom take a seat next to Pookey the bear
Share crumble cake because that's only fair
Dad, there's plenty of room by Hobbes
Spare spots next to Garfield he's a slob
Georgia of course there's a chair for you
With sarah the lead of our stuffy crew
We've got earl grey, mate, chai latte
A balancing act a dried leaf karate
Complainer strained by the strainer
Theses topics truthfully pertain to later
For now shortbread cookies are a proper choice
Cracker's crumbling love cause to rejoice
But I'm getting ahead of myself again
Overextending the light lanterns send
No reason not to never not pretend
I will rest peacefully now
