So Sweet

A crook speaks sweet words to crook                 But his heart is sourly.                The lemon tastes sour              But it is healing diseases. The healer mix up the sour and sweet juice                 And it is a medicine.       The medicine heals the bitter bite,                 Bitten by the bees           And the bees give honey.              The honey is very sweet  And the sugar cane gives the sweet juice.              The sweet juice become   Sugar and it cannot be mixing with salt                 To give sweet taste.            Published December 2015         By Alfonso Warally Ngengethe                  Mussabwa Chris            Book: Remember your roots,           Honey and milk in Africa Only
