The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Pepper love

You're like the pepper in food,
You make life spicy but good,
Too much of you is too strong,
Too little of you is just wrong.

With you every day is exciting,
It's either intense love or fighting,
Just like magnets with changing poles,
We're humans with restless souls.

With you it never gets boring,
You're selfish but also adoring,
You are like fire and ice,
The most beautiful spice.

One day when we'll both be old,
If I'm grumpy and shrinky and bold,
If I'm weak and I can't hold my pee,
I hope you'll still love me.
