Execution via Green Tea

Everyone gets their just-desserts, even talking sugar...

The water was green as could be

A thick green mist you could see

Hovering above all that tea

Sitting at the bottom of a cup; a vast sea

 

You must already guess how a sugar cub felt

As it drifted dejected and bitterly dwelt

In warm waters which, made it melt

"Spoon! Quick help me and find a life belt!

Stop leaning about or I'll have you welt...!"

Sugar threaded, in warm water which, made it melt

"Sour sugar, with you I've never dealt

Yet the gossip has you poorly spelt;

In warm waters that make you melt

You are a rotten child finally getting the belt

You're wickedness has soured you, or so we've felt

Everyone laughs at warm waters which make you melt",

Spoon said while beside Sugar it knelt.

 

 Ella knew nothing of the spoon or the "we"

She was sitting dressed up, the cup on her knee

They all sipped in unison, Ella with the other three

And later she wondered what was wrong with her tea...
