Oh wow the intoxicating pungent smell of eucalyptus oil - no wonder it drives you to popular Shisha, where you swirl in blue mist with a wonderful blueberry flavour. I know all your poems have a message - well penned my dear friend Paul, Warm wishes and hugs, Jennifer.

Paul Callus
Date: 6/16/2019 11:23:00 AM

You have delved to the core of my poem and delivered an insightful feedback, Jenny! In some countries shisha is very popular, though undoubtedly not at all healthy. Thank you for stopping by, my friend. Warm regards & Hugs // paul
