Oh liquorice how you soothe me
that sweet darling nature that hugs my throat and lets it sleep
you take away that eeking scratchy feel and take me swimming in delicate, whipped creamy sugar.
Peppermint, you're always there to freshen me up, to prep me up for a night on the town, a date, or snuggly bed.
You help my tummy relax and take things slow, piece by piece my food goes down, and you're there to wave it off a safe goodbye.
And you water, oh you boiling, gurgling flaming water.
Your steam ruptures my glossy shell, like tears you drain away the toxins and replenish me with contentment.
Oh what would I do without you?
