Many of you may know the Pagoda Poem by Yuan Zhen, an 8th century Tang Dynasty poet. If not the words, at least its look is quite iconic:
茶。
香叶，嫩芽。
慕诗客，爱僧家。
碾雕白玉，罗织红纱。
铫煎黄蕊色，碗转曲尘花。
夜后邀陪明月，晨前独对朝霞。
洗尽古今人不倦，将知醉后岂堪夸。
元稹
I took the liberty of translating it into German while keeping the visual structure, intending to make it sound more crisp and modern. In case you got a decent command of German, you might want to switch to the German version of this blog, as I am not posting it here.
I hope you may like it.
