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
