My Honeys From Around the World
WHEN I MEET AN UNKNOWN HONEY,
IT PUTS ME ON THE SPOT.
MY EYES AND NOSE
AND MY TASTE BUDS
REALLY WANT TO ROCK.
I LIKE A LITTLE MILK,
WITH MY HONEY PLEASE.
I'D LIKE TO TRY SOME HONEY,
FROM MANUKA TREE.
NOW SOURWOOD HONEY,
IS REALLY SOMETHING ELSE.
CHERRY BLOSSOM HONEY,
I CAN'T KEEP IT ON THE SHELF.
SOME ARE DARK SOME ARE BLOND.
OF DANDELION I'M VERY FOND.
BUCKWHEAT VS BLUEBERRY,
I PUT THEM TO THE TEST.
BLACKBERRY VS CHESTNUT,
THAT CHALLENGE PROVED THE BEST.
ASIAN PEAR AND APPLE,
PEACH AND ROSEMARY.
EVEN HAVE A HONEY
FROM EUCALYPTUS TREE.
FOREST HONEY, MAINLY FIR.
MONOFLORAL CREATES A STIR.
ACACIA, SUNFLOWER AND APRICOT.
I'LL SURRENDER MY TASTE BUDS,
RIGHT THERE ON THE SPOT.
CLOVER, ORANGE BLOSSOM,
PEAR AND CRANBERRY.
IF IT HAS A BLOSSOM
THE TASTE SHOULD BE SO MERRY .
MY THOUGHTS ARE TRAPPED,
INSIDE A SWIRL.
WITH 500 HONEYS,
FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
