Sweet Or Salty

Sometimes a need for added salt Can be a good meal's only fault. I am so glad that I am able To have salt shaker on my table. I'd rather chew on dry asphalt Than finest meat devoid of salt. And if that meal ends with a treat It satisfies my yen for sweet. I got my taste for salt from Papa And one for sweets from my dear Mama.
