For Iroh

There are many kinds of tea and each I like the same-

From oolong to earl grey, white dragon and ginseng

All tea must be served hot and cannot be tolerated cold-

That is one thing I will never stand for, even though I'm old

Tea must be sacred, and savored every sip-

Tea, like words, must be tasted with the mind and never with the lip

All kinds of tea go wonderfully with a bit of pai-sho

A game whose many properties, most never know

So if you favor fine teas, and the ancient white lotus tile

Then come and have a game with me and we will talk a while.
