Becoming Tea

By: Kyle Elden

It is only a red mug
with hot water, and
a tea bag steeping
releasing swirls of color
steam rising
with light
with the easy scent of peppermint
a ritual of lips to cup, and
warmth flows gently
falling down throat
into belly and beyond

If only I should
learn
an act of surrender
like this
so simply settling into
what is
to transform into something
different
something more
unlocked,
released
