Stirred with a little spoon, the teabags swim
Like carp in golden liquid, fin to fin.

I couldn't help but see the (PG) tips of those teabags as shark fins bobbing in a golden liquid of soup - a slightly ghastly re-write of your delightful two line poem perhaps best suited to a haiku. All the best,
Colin.
A nice captive moment and beautifully expressed !

Ha ha, Cynthia, I was looking into the teapot, not one cup. I am too impatient sometimes to let it brew. That is true of tea, and may be true of poetry as I stir up a poem and pour it almost at once.
