Pinch of Salt

If variety is the spice of life,
I've got a mighty spicy one.
With myriad flavours and colours
My taste buds definitely have fun!

First are the evergreens,
Perpetually dripping with sweetness,
You can always count on them
To be your loyal witness.

Then comes the sour
With a slight taste of tang,
You accept them as they are,
Though of your loses, they sang.

The challenges in life mount each day
With every bite of the annoyingly bitter.
However hard to swallow they may be,
They go a long way in making life better.

The tantalizing and delicious
Make it a point to add flavour.
They are the reason why
The beauty in life, you can savour.

Never forget that precious handful,
Who helped you learn from your faults
Cause life is bland and boring
Without that pinch of salt!
