Just A Little Tea-Set Poem by Lloyd Savage

Got this inspiration while visiting and old forgotten house with relics and papers inside. My eyes drawn to the tea set pieces broken and scattered the poem just came to me. I displayed it in a poet's fair exhibit in Louisiana and one lady came to me and said 'You know that poem is based on a true story didn't you? ' I said No, I've never heard, I just penned it from inspiration. She then proceeded to inform me a couple had a little girl who had passed away and shortly thereafter something happened to their home. I think she said it was a fire and the only thing of hers that was saved was all of her little tea set she loved and played with often unscarred and like new. They placed it on their shelf and they still have it today.
