REMEMBERING THE TASTE
LINGERING
I had tasted
the nectar,
juices and
sweetness of
many fruits
and vegetables;
some were
bitter and sour;
some were wine,
liquor, and beer;
some I savored,
some never again.
BUT
when I tasted
you for the first time
my taste buds
realized that I
had never tasted
something as sweet
as the juice from
a ripe mango.
I will never forget
that taste, I remember
it every day.
Perhaps you know
of fruit or juice that might
taste better? Care to
share IT?

Yes, we each have our own tastes and sometimes mix them. Thanks and hugs, O)
