Lifts me up for lethargy
Perks me up as always
To face another day
A dash of lemon grass
Or a few leaves of basil
Or maybe strands of ginger
Added to tea leaves to rustle
In boiling water for a minute
A spoonful of dairy whitener
To go with plant based sweetener
Let's the taste for long linger
The beautiful aroma of herbs
Awakens all my senses at once
I cannot for a day go without
It anyway or I shall stay
Put in the bed the whole day
