The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Writer's Quill, Whispers Still

The quill, once held by hand so strong, 
Now rests upon a dusty shelf, 
Forgotten tales, where they belong, 
No longer whispered to itself. 

Ink, once a wellspring, dark and deep, 
Has dried to flakes, a shadowed stain, 
The writer sleeps, a peaceful sleep, 

But though the hand may write no more,
The words still dance on memory's shore,
In hearts that felt the stories soar. 

A legacy of ink and quill, 
Of dreams ignited, hearts set to thrill, 
The writer's quill, whispers still.
