Honey

When I eat honey

A tasty time capsule explodes

Bringing back childhood memories

Happy summers

Endless days of fun

Running through tall grasses

Collecting wild flowers

Smelling their sweet scent

Rushing home for a snack

Mother making toast

Hot buttered bread

Drizzled with honey

Sweet delicious honey

Lingering over every bite

Crunchy thick toast

Creamy butter

Sweet flavorful honey

Sticky fingers tasted good

Whenever we fell ill

We drank warm water with honey

Soothing sweet honey

Calming sore throats

Giving energy to tired limbs

At the first sign of any adult cold or flu

We drank hot toddies

Whisky, honey, lemon and hot water

A magical potion to ward off all sickness

Best taken at bedtime

Making your dreams sweeter

We also baked Flapjacks

Oats mixed with delicious honey

A healthy treat after dinner

Or sampled on a summer picnic

Sitting on a blanket

Watching the bees

Visiting wild flowers

To make us more honey

Liquid gold honey

Pure sweet honey
