The taste of love is truly sweet
Of honeybees’ delicious treat
The morning dew, the moon anew
The wonder that is love so true.
The taste of love that’s on the air
With perfume stealing everywhere.
When love’s unleashed, without a doubt
What lies within soon shines without
Some say that love is everything
And some they seal it with a ring
And love once tasted, as well it might
Serves to whet the appetite
The more you taste the more you need
From daybreak ‘til your midnight feed.
But bitter is the taste for s/he
Who dines on infidelity.

    Sorry about that. I was trying to put a twist in the tail/tale.

    Another nice one, Neville. I wasn't expecting that ending, though.
