sipping on this spritzer
Little Lime
You make my tongue roll back
In shock at sour starts
A dash of sugar never hurt
To make our relationship less tart
A splash of Vanilla
She’s so divine
There to lend a helping hand
And blend these flavors until they’re fine
Preparing for when ginger lands
Chopped up pieces
Soaked in syrup
Adding spice, and something nice
To close our saga, we welcome soda
Clear with bubbles,
Stirring up trouble
Little lime
We’re friends again
Sipping on this Spritzer
Dreaming both of warmth and Summer
One that never ends
Makes 1 drink
