The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Old fashioned love

Love takes different steps in different cultures, 
If touching means a show of affection, 
If holding hands in privacy mean anything, 
It's a sincere show of love in my old-fashioned way.. 

If a few minutes of conversation, 
Brings your mind to loving affection, 
If going out with the love and families mean anything, 
It’s the next step to a solid romantic affection. 

If hugs and kisses could wait till wedding, 
If bouquet of roses can arouse passion after the bonding, 
If dreaming of being in loving arms in silvery night can wait for the day, 
It’s true and lasting love in my old-fashioned way. 

After living and raising kids for a while, 
If one lover leaves for the heavenly pearly gates, 
Missing her and passionately feeling alone, 
It is a sure sign of deep love.
