Sweet Anticipation.

Green tea leaves are picked in Spring, lie waiting, sweet anticipation, for the jasmine flowers to bloom in early Summer. Picked in the early morning, tightly closed, the flowers are not introduced to the tea leaves until evening, when petals open, release perfume and flavour. The two spend the night together, become jasmine tea, two yet one.

I lie waiting, sweet anticipation, for the opening of your jasmine flowers.
