My good friend, 
My gentle friend,
My stalwart friend
During a time of trouble---

I ate a peach today
And its sweet savorty
Was on my breath like a
Candy, which lingered there long.

Just like the savorty
Of my Cinnamon and
Ginger with tomato
Basil and Oregano.
Just like the savorty
Of the Thyme and Tarragon
In my Chicken Noodle Soup;
Or the Gumbo I make
With the Mint, Tarragon
Bay Leaf, and Three Alarm
Pepper, honey and lime zest.

I was taught to enjoy this.
