Tea in the afternoon.

Tea Time

by GWHARGIS

The queen would have her tea now.  The butler poured it in the bone China cup.
The queen asked for sugar and watched while he stirred it, then she waved him away.  
The queen liked to sip her tea alone.  She crept to the door and peeked down the hall.
The coast was clear.  The queen went to the cabinet and pulled out her flask.
A splash was all she needed.  No one had to know.
Long live the queen.
