Hi Friends!
Thank you for the birthday greetings and sweet messages last week.
Your wishes were so kind and a blessing!
I hope you enjoyed a nice weekend.
We had rain, but thankful for the moisture with the new spring blooms on the way.
As part of my 10th year blog celebration,
I will be sharing posts from years past.
As I was looking through the archives for one this week,
I came across this post sharing a special teacup
I cherish and love.
With it's green beauty it seemed appropriate with
St. Patrick's Day coming soon
and
10th Tea cup/Mug exchange.
So as we take a look back in blogland
I thank you for letting me share this poem
I wrote in 2011.
LOVE FROM YESTERDAY
There's a cozy little corner, within my cottage dear,
it was crying for a visit and so I sat right there.
With my chair that graced a redo and table close at hand,
I’ll sit my sweet green tea cup with thoughts of days to plan.
My mind so filled with ideas,
While sipping raspberry tea.
I’ll plan and wish and dream away
Of things not yet to be.
Sweet teacup was so lonely, until I filled her up,
My chance to recall memories of days and loved ones much.
Remembering this teacup a gift to Mother dear,
From a sweet little Godchild, for a birthday one fine year.
Wrapped in pink with ribbons and smiles of giving delight,
Mother opened the precious present for delicate was inside.
With glee and squeals of affection and hugs to go around,
Godchild was so happy for Mother was so proud.
Through the years sweet green tea cup, gave joys and love untold,
Mother cherished it completely, for God had blessed her so.
With love and admiration for simple things in life,
I learned a faithful lesson, to give is always right.
Today this sweet green tea cup, lives with me so near,
Within my cozy corner forever to be dear.
Joined in many moments upon my comfy spot,
I cherish quiet blessings and tea within sweet cup.
For life has given joys never to compare,
And when I want to visit, I’ll sit upon my chair.
Sweet teacup will be waiting to meet me for the day,
And together we’ll remember,
Love from Yesterday!

What a lovely poem and teacup!! Congratulations on 10 years!!
Celeste, such a gorgeous teacup, I actually gasped it took my breath away no lie.

What a beautiful poem-you really created a serene pretty picture in my mind. The teacup is as almost as beautiful as your poetry. Happy 10 years, dear Celeste! Wishing you at least 10 more!
Celestina~ Good Morning to you and many blessings for your day.
How tender and beautifully written is your poem and my, that is a gorgeous tea cup!
Today we are getting hit with a snow storm and it is just beautiful. It is one of those quick accumulating snow falls.
I shall enjoy my walk with Donatella this afternoon as she plays in the snow.
Enjoy your day in all its glory~~
10 years! That's impressive.
And, I love that teacup.
Celeste, Your poem is a wonderful tribute to the memories that the tea cup holds. It's is a pretty cup and I love your quiet reflection corner. A perfect place for sipping tea and reading. Thank you for sharing. Hugs, Linda
It can be strange/wonderful how inanimate objects can relate so much--to the owner. I have useless items in my home---that conjure memories--that are priceless. Totally appreciated this post, best to you, Sandi
Lovely poem. I have a friend who makes tea a daily event, and has a tea party once a month!
Happy 10th anniversary! This corner is very romantic, i love it very much. The tea cup is very elegant
Hugs Alessandra
Beautiful poem to celebrate a cherished tea cup. Happy 10 years!
Sweet, sweet poem. Oh - and the cup and saucer? To die for!
Happy spring and sunshine today!

Thank you for sharing that poem with us as part of your re-posts from ten years of blogging. Love and blessings to you, Kitty

Linda
Your gifts and talents have no end... I love the sweet teacup poem! It is so beautiful.. I think you should print it out, maybe add a few of your hand painted flowers to it and frame it to hang somewhere by your sweet little sitting area :) Such a lovely spot to sit and drink tea... congratulations on your blogging anniversary and happy belated birthday too! May the Lord's sweetest blessings be with you :)
Happy 10th Anniversary - Belated Birthday too! I never knew you wrote poems too?!! Is there anything you can't do? :)
Have a blessed week my friend.

Happy Blogiversary! A beautiful poem Celeste!
Lovely poem and tea cup dear. Cherishing the moments we hold so dear to our hearts is precious. Happy 10 year Blogiversary. That is quite an accomplishment. May you have a very Blessed year. <3
I am so glad you are sharing past posts because its a second opportunity for a wonderful read. May I also wish you a belated Happy Birthday and happy blogging milestone.
Also, thank you so very much for your warm and heartfelt comments.
I wanted to let you know that I am nearing the end of my college experience and am currently doing a 7-week internship at a museum as a requirement for graduation. It is an interesting experience to be sure.
I must admit that I am struggling to try and manage my time and make sure my family's needs are met. Sadly, this leaves little time left for visiting my favorite people in the world and their fabulous blogs. I hope you'll have patience with me. Thankfully, this time won't last forever and I will soon, once again, be able to see all the wonderful things you are doing.
May glorious weather and lovely flowers put a spring in your step,
Laura
Good Morning Lovely Lady,

You bring so much goodness, kindness, as well as genuine and heartfelt joy to our online community.
Each of your hand-painted pieces are constructed and made with thoughtful and tender care and your poem today is an extension of your talent and inner goodness.
Wishing you the best that this year has to offer!
Blessings and Hugs,
Jemma
