Sweet
Sweet, as salt is
When it used to calm a sore throat
Sweet, as pungent is
When it diverts from pain
Sweet, as rain is
When it first touches the earth
Sweet, as the mind
That chooses to process only ideas
Sweet, as the heart
That choose to filter in only beauty
Sweet, as in the less sugar tea
When the conversation has picked up speed
Sweet, are you sure it's just a taste?
