I like this slim, elegant verse that shows how this is a daily part of life: poached eggs on the good china, willow's tale. Very nice. xxox

So few words recalling the late 18th century tale of a young engraver who produced an imitation Chinese pattern with pagodas and other Blue Willow elements.
I can't help but wonder if you take a stroll before breakfast--- on neighboring property perhaps ? :-) A riddle. I love it!
