Was honored to offer tea and speak about tea culture at a Tea and Chan (Zen) presentation organized and hosted by Day Day Up Teahouse at the Great Dharma Chan Monastery in Boulder, Colorado. I was one of 12 guest tea hosts, two at each of six tables, each table dedicated to one of six different tea types: Green, Yellow, White, Oolong, Dark, and Black.

I love this very small teapot, only two inches high, made from red Chao Zhou clay. Definitely perfect size for my meditative tea practice on a cold winter morning (see the view from my window). Inspired me to write a short poem and some haiku.

A Tea Koan

My teapot is small,
But it contains all of Heaven and Earth.
My aroma cup is narrow,
Yet the scent spreads to every cell.
I am just one person,
Yet I hold sun, moon, and stars within.
Tea and Zen, not one taste
But all tastes, is there any difference?

Winter Morning Haiku

On hoarfrost branches
Chickadees play, not minding
Cold weather at all!

Against the aspen
Gray, black chickadees are the
Color of winter.

Cold winter morning,
Dark leaves of roasted oolong,
Simple contentment.

How odd, the crunch of
Thin ice while carrying wood
Makes me so hungry!

Not a trace of wind
Light snow dusted on aspen
Looks like a painting.
