Tea Bag Poem wanted please

flyingpig58

I am wanting to make some tea bag gift cards and boxes - does anyone know of any short poems I could add?

I have got the Christmas poem but wondered if there were any others that could be used all the year round.

I would also be very interested in any other craft ideas using tea bags too.

Helen

Thank you

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]I've never made a fortune[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]And it's prob'ly too late now;[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]But I don't worry 'bout that much,[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]I'm happy anyhow![/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]And as I go along life's way[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]Reapin' better than I sowed.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]I'm drinkin' from my saucer,[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]'Cause my cup has overflowed![/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]Haven't got a lot of riches,[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]And sometimes the going's tough;[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]But I've got loving ones around me,[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]And that makes me rich enough![/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]I thank God for His blessings[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]And the mercies He's bestowed.[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]And light peeped through again.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]So, Lord, help me not to gripe[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]If God gives me strength and courage[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]When the way grows steep and rough,[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]I'll not ask for other blessings;[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]I'm already blessed enough![/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]May I never be too busy[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]To help others bear their loads.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]I'll keep drinkin' from my saucer,[/SIZE][/FONT]

Although the miles divide us,
Its easier to be,
Together in our thinking,
As we make a cup of tea,
So lets both put the kettle on,
And make ourselves a brew,
And while you drink and think of me,
I'll drink and think of you.

Sorry forgot to add that I place a t bag inside a card (that I have made of course) and add the poem to the front or inside, and post this to friends and relations that I dont see too often, not for birthdays or any special occasion for no other reason than to make them smile.
