The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Serene Spirit

Here I stand,the sun on my face
My back in shadows
 Around me  tender lips whisper a solemn prayer.

Legs together,buried ankle deep in  natural
 spa.
toes tickled by  mother earth’s gentle massage
Curious onlookers  can only peep
  kept away by my mother’s hand.

What a wonderful feeling to be cared for
 Neither do I toil nor tire
But  stand aloft, a serene spirit
a beautiful tree with leaves of deepest green.

I hear them whisper prayers to the wind
I see weeds wither and die in nature’s hand
 And know I am truly loved and cared for from above.
