Life Is Like Cooking
Life is like cooking
The adventure we launch is setting us on fire
Roaring into flames, risks, we always try
The hotter it is, the excitement we cannot wait
Aflame with passion, we endlessly pursue and create
The grease we need, to keep us afloat
The surface is slick, we tend not to sugarcoat
The youthful burst is something we don't trust
But we will be of what we want to be, till we crashed
To flavor it with spices and aromatic herbs
Are experiences we need to feel superb
Though at times they taste acrid or sweet
No choice, but to savor them between our teeth
Whatever is the menu, a mix of vegetables is healthy
The color of green, yellow and red can add vitality
All we need to present a well garnished story
As we place it in the plate of success and palatability
