Saucy Saucers


I long for the days when saucers weren't absent. 
When teacups rested gently on top of their friendly 
companion and often alongside a delicatable cookie.
 
I daydreamt the day away with visions of tiny
little teaspoons clinking these robbin's egg
blue saucers and creating such a beautiful sound.
 
I wish for tea parties and tiny triangle sandwiches. 
There was a time when women dyed the bread. 
I want to eat purple cucumber, diagonally cut sandwiches.
 
I just really miss saucers.
They weren't a major part of my 
growing up or anything, but I think the gesture of them is nice, 
their existence is rather beautiful.
