Relaxation Tea - Poor Man's Saffron
The cup is warm and clear, copper deepening to red, with small things suspended in the light—needles, petals, grains, and a single bright strip of gold.

Its name is a fragment of Roman timekeeping, a flower that turns up quietly, month after month, making things brighter without being called precious. There’s a kind of person like that, too.
