A Slower Journey

Gathering with THEORÓ

“Brewing Tea by a Mountain Spring” by Bai Juyi (772 to 846 AD), a influential musician and poet of the Tang Dynasty (618 to 907 AD):

As I linger by the murmuring brook, lost in quiet contemplation after a gentle pour;
I watch as the dust swirls in a delicate dance of grace, rising with the steam.
With no means to offer this bowl;
If only I could gift it to those, near or far, who cherish tea as deeply as I.
