Tasty!

Today, we're challenged to write a poem that explores our sense of taste. Mmm...one of my favourite flavours (and smells) is citrus...

Liquid Sunshine

Citrus tastes like summer:

The tang of yellow sunshine on your tongue,

The sweet orange nectar of a summer breeze,

The cool lime liquid quenching your thirst

The Irish say that rain is liquid sunshine,

But I believe it's the juices of citrus

Bursting in your mouth,

Playing on the sweet and sour of your senses,

Dripping from your smiling summer face
