~The Best Cup Of Tea~
This is the story
of the Doctor's best hug
Given to Amy Pond
in a far away pub.
It started as it did,
with a whoosh from outside
that sent Amy to the garden,
Rory glued to her side.
The blue box popped open
and out himself came,
trampling the flowers
without one shred of shame.
"Amy Pond, get your coat!"
He cried out with a wink.
"And Rory, you too."
After a moment to think.
"Have I got a cracker!"
He said with a grin,
"So hurry up, Ponds!
My patience wears thin!
"But first a quick stop
before our trip is through,
We'll need Jammy Dodgers
and River Song, too."
So they flew off to Tesco
and then the Storm Cage,
to make joking statements
and compare everyone's age.
"So where are we off to?"
Amy asked. "What magical show?"
"A nova, a starbirth,
or a double-rainbow?"
"Ho-ho!" The Doctor laughed
with a shake of his head.
"You'll never believe me,
not one thing I said!"
"It's the best pot of tea
that ever was brewed.
And it happened in China
to suit the Emperor's mood.
"The tea was untouched,
picked one leaf at a time
by a virgin whose hands
were tied back with twine.
"The leaves were toasted
so carefully they say,
not one single leaf
could have floated away.
"The weather was so perfect
for that whole growth year,
that the leaves were like
silvery droplets of tears
"And the water! Good Lord,
From the high mountain stream
was so crisp and so pure
that it made golden steam.
"And the pot that they made,
such a fine work of art,
was used just this once
and then broken apart."
Rory and Amy listened
as he spun his great tale
While River laughed at the men
guarding her flimsy jail.
"Hello, sweetie." said she,
with a devious smirk.
"To China then, dear?
Lord, the Emperor's a jerk!"
"A jerk he is River,
but one with good taste,
So we'll steal his best tea
and prank him with fish paste!
"With great taste in tea,"
The Doctor clarified
as he flew the box to the palace
and landed quietly inside.
"Don't forget this." He said,
giving Rory a bag.
"Now keep up everyone,
Don't wander or lag!
"That tea will be ready
in two minutes sharp
I'll switch the teapot
for one stuffed with dead carp!
"We'll make our escape
and we'll take the tea, too
to a lovely star-rise
on Beryllium-2!
"Here comes the servant,
the slave girl and nag.
Hurry up now, Rory
and give me that bag!"
Rory's hands did shake
and he was worried, for
when he jostled the bag
the contents hit the floor.
The carp was quite old
and a bit slimy, too.
So Amy did slip
and fall into the goo.
The thermos was spared,
and River thought quick,
so she knocked out the servant
with a well-placed high kick.
River grabbed up the thermos
and filled it from that pot,
thought of keeping it for herself,
but then decided not.
"Back to the TARDIS!" she yelled,
as she pulled Amy clear.
"I'm ready for the star-rise
let's get out of here!"
They ran through the doors,
and were soon underway.
Jammy Dodgers in hand,
it felt just like pay day.
"To Beryllium-2!"
The Doctor said in delight.
"This is going to be
a fantabulous night!
"The galley has all of the
cups we could need,
so grab some and let's
watch the stars from the weeds."
A quick check revealed
that the Emperor died young.
No one likes a man
with an attitude like dung.
The light show was brilliant
even River agreed.
And Rory held Amy
and heaved a deep sigh relieved.
"So why did you do this?"
Amy asked, and he shrugged
then enveloped her in
a giant bear hug.
Then River joined in
finally Rory, too.
The Doctor just said
"I felt lonely and blue.
"My friends can always
give me a big smile
and I've been alone
for such a long while
"I wanted to have tea
with all my best friends,
but it had to be special
I was at loose ends!
"So I found the best tea
and the very best view
because I wanted something nice
I could share with you."
Amy's eyes were wet.
"You stupid old sod.
I'd drink muddy water with you
you dumb clod."
The Doctor smiled wide
"Now that sounds just right.
Have another jammy dodger.
Let's enjoy the night!"
Hope you enjoyed!
