The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Earth

Earth

The road to the unknown forest is within your heart
We seek with our eyes much too much and feel emotions we do not understand
All around you is life devoted for your pleasure yet we only fight to survive
I am tearful of the future that we may never come together as one
I feel the leaves beneath my feet and hear the sound of the birds and the trees blowing
The rain pours down and the streams fill to wash the remains of yesterday
I know the here and the now but tomorrow will not show us how
The heart and soul is now at peace as I lay within this earth.

Enjoying the present is more important than worrying about the future. // paul
