Kate Greenaway (1846-1901 / England)
Poems by Kate Greenaway : 32 / 43
The Tea Party
IN the pleasant green Garden
We sat down to tea;
'Do you take sugar?' and
'Do you take milk?'
She'd got a new gown on–
A smart one of silk.
We all were so happy
As happy could be,
On that bright Summer's day
When she asked us to tea.
