The Bottomless Tea Pot
Early Spring, flowers a bloom, trees vibrant and youth. A time for relaxing and piece of mind. A boy and gradfather sit on their knees at a small table in thier old fashion japanese style house;Sliding woode doors. wooden floors. The sun light seeps threw the mesh of the screen door lighting the the table. The light shows thier appearences with quite detail. The young boy was about 9ish or so, Light short brown hair, big dark brown eyes and milky white colored skin. He wore a black kimono designed with a gold dragon wraped around the body of the cloth. He also wore light wooden sandles with a black strap on his feet. He had a warm smile that gave a feel of happiness. The Grandfather seemed very wise. He was short with pale wrinkly skin. He had no hair on top of his had but,he had white light hair flairing from the sides that connected to a big white beard that was so long it reached his knees. His eyes were sharply shaped as though he was pondering. He wore a light blue kimono decorated with many colorful fist from red to black to dark blue and yellow. he also wore light bron sandles and with a black strap. The old mans eyes moved slowly to the right of the table,and in the light the was a small black tea pot on top of a white pearl plate. There was also 2 porcelean cups beside the pot. The grand father put one cup in front of the boy and one in front of him. Ever so gentaly the grandfather carefully lifted the pot and poured some Green Tea into both cups. The boy looked at his cup and staired at the steam the raised of the cup. The boy and the grandfather told stories for hours and hours as time went by and by. The pot never emptied , why was this so? The son smiled and said to his grandfather "Grandpa. i love ur stories and it always brings me joy. I never get tired like time stops." The grandfather laughed with a humble expressionand said "There's always a time to enjoy peace with the people you love and it feels like it will never end."
