Although you are a friend of mine
and comments we exchange
I wouldn't know you on the street
and doesn't that seem strange?
You hold a special place within my life,
your visits full of pleasure and delight
We share ideas and special posts
across these boundless coasts
In my mind I have a picture of you So for this friendship we possess
perhaps you picture me too
An intriguing game for both of us
this guessing game of clues
we owe this blog a debt,
Perhaps the charm lies in the fact
that we have never met.
Two lovely ladies who enjoy afternoon tea have taken the time to form afternoon tea clubs for all tea lovers of Blogshire. They would like to invite you to join them in posting afternoon tea and/or friendship related articles and photos each Tuesday. Here is your chance to share your lovely tea adornments, a favourite tea or friendship related poem or quote, a delicious recipe or a combination of all of the above.

It's a pleasure and a delight also for me to sip a good tea in a pretty cup with you, beautiful Lady!
Happy Tuesday Duchess!
And thank you so much for your lovely comment!
What a sweet idea! Love the photos too! And the little poem! xxx
What a sweet poem, yes i agree it is funny if we saw each other on the street i wouldnt know it :)
Thankyou for taking the time to drop by, my interview went well I thought. Next week first round offers are sent out, so i shall keep my fingers crossed!
As for the exam, that is in 3 weeks time.
Hope you have a fantastic week.

I love the poem and the idea. Im going to try and think up of a tea post for a tuesday :)
p.s. i tried your idea of the cardomom in the tea. I just did one pod in my cup, but i crushed it a bit first. i really liked it :) (but as usual most of the flavour is in the last sip :)).
Well you are my afternoon tea, Queen ... Duchess!
I really love the words, so interesting. The photo's were delectable.

What a sweet poem you posted for your bloggy friends. The pictures you put on your blog are so lovely and cheery. Have a nice day Duchess!

I am certain I would recognize you if I passed you on the street, your highness... (is that what I call you Duchess???)... I LOVE your posts! Bisous... Julie Marie
Thanks you dear Duchess for your visits. I so love to visit with you. Tea and desserts are always so great. Love the poem. If I sign up to do Tea on Tuesday I would probably forget when Tuesday got here. I will stopping in though.
Thanks so for the lovely invitation.

Beautiful, Duchess! Love your poem and the lovely tea setting...how I enjoy visiting you for a sweet cup of tea in one of your beautiful china cups! I agree, its amazing that we have such friends that we've never met. I think it proves one thing...that we are bonded by life itself...we don't have many differences, but many similarities because we are women, and were created to communicate, to decorate, and to relate, and blogging is the perfect avenue for expressing ourselves. I so love finding other lovers, but I also love my blogging friends for the variety and new interests that they bring my way. This was a great post...really touched me.
God bless you, Duchess,
Mary

Warmest regards, Karen
Such a sweet poem and so true! xx
Oh, what fun if I can just rememer to do it. Lovely poem btw.
I feel slightly superfluous here at the bottom of the list, but love the sentiment of the verse - especially the intrigue and the clues!

What a lovely tea setting and poem. It is true we have not met but have become friends. I have enjoyed your visits to my blog and your kind comments. Have a blessed day. Madeline
What a lovely tea setting - so pretty. I love the florals with the green glass plates. The scones look perfectly delicious.
Thank you sooooo much for your love the other day. You are a little belter !! xx
I had chi tea with you today and it was smashing ta xxx
I agree with you, great friendships have been made and without having met or knowing each other that well. I like that.
It is funny that we could walk past a fellow blogger and not know who they are.
Really enjoyed your previous post!
