Salt of the Earth
"you are the salt of the Earth"
the flavor
from your
being
your taste
who you are
makes the entire Earth either flavorful or bitter
you are the savor in soup
just enough of you
makes it right
too much of you will
ruin the stew
know that you have a great gift
one drop from your salty tears
brings some seasoning
too much sweat
ruins the meal
