On my way back, He got angry at the seats Assigned separately. A little too far, She, a little too dimwitted, Those who travel together Sit together, Now don't normal families do! But we couldn't, The seats were empty, We were the first few to arrive, She has no excuses Other than her mindlessness. I stopped the formal complaining And would sort it I say. (Rough edges). In the aisle, a small traffic I, the second car. After a brief, polite but angered spat We sat sepearate, Say I will sort it. The man I could tell Spoke my tongue, I waz getting better at observing. After two lines of request he agreed, And I waited for the aisle to empty. (Questions. Answers.) In the wait, The man behind got up And offered his place, I couldn't thank him enough, Our frivolity Made his act a nobelity, I declined. We smiled at each other Our truest of smiles And things were better again. We were one big family, Looking after the other. The man of my tongue And the man of my family Drifted off to a conversation, And I to a digital page. I can't speak for the noble man, I didn't look at him again. (Silence) After a light meal, I am craving a tea, That's the first thing I ask now Everytime I come home. (It might be red.)

A Cup of Tea Now
