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.
