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.
