Salt Functionality
Preservation quality
such is the essence of my functionality
along endowed saltiness’ purity
especially bestowed by the Creator Almighty.
Sodium chloride is my scientific identity
in human body, I’m an essential entity
helping maintain health’s activity
ensuring muscle and nerve integrity.
Flavor-enhancement magnifies my beauty
surely food-processing pursuits regard me as necessity
toward grand color and good texture intensity
aside from my nutrient-provision capacity.
Indeed I’m a valuable commodity
and I thank God for this significant opportunity…
even the Bible mentions my salt-vitality*
for mankind to consider, surviving against futility.
Mark 9:50 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
