The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Spirit of Happy

Sometimes in the face of doubt there’s spirit of hope.
Little chimes of happy and okay. 
It reminds you there’s a possibility
A reality to follow the feeling
Move to the beat you feel 

Battle the worlds under the title of “Love”
The fight moves you still closer
Still, and farther still
Until you lie still. 

Water, smooth water for the aching heart
Warm and simple weather
Calm and quiet; strong
Quite strong.
Jump in

Motion picture makeup covers guilt
MAC gasoline for my tired eyes
Cried to the bone
Lost in shimmer
Alone
