Bittersweet Yesteryear

Yesteryear mixed dulcet days with bitterly sour moments.
Zesty and tart as lemons, but tempered with honeyed memories.
This year, I will only journey through sweet orange orchards.

Terry Flood Date: 1/1/2024 4:02:00 PM Dammit! I love honey and lemon lockets (throat sweet).But I’ll take the sweet orange orchards in 2024. Have the best 2024, Lin. Terry Login to Reply Lin Lane Date: 1/3/2024 5:01:00 PM They're good for soothing the throat, but sometimes the sour outweighs the sweet and causes a whole new body ache. Thanks, Terry, and all the best to you.
