Poetry linnk for today

too many modern poems are bad prose and impossible to understand.

But the BBC has some practical poems on line, such as:

Ode on brewing Tea

Always, always warm the pot
whether you have time or not
Draw the water freshly too
as this ensures a better brew
If a litre's what you need
then four teaspoons will succeed
in filling six cups, medium strength.
Five full minutes is the length
of time before you pour
and with good leaf-tea nothing more.
Anne Connolly, Edinburgh
