The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Jake Is Head Over Heels

Old gorgeous Jake is completely in love
Hours he stares and hears a turtledove.
One weekend he never leaves her alone.
He stays in there with a well-used comb.
He goes nowhere, eats nothing at all.
He stretches and preens and stands so tall!
His parents are tearful and truly fear
He’ll never fall out of love with his mirror.

O my, have we been through this before! I like the rhyme and the rhythm and the theme which every parent who ever raised a teenage boy understands. Nice work!
