Cinnamon posed a challenge for *real poets*, vs the faux and ersatz ones... can you help with the definition of a *real poet*, please...
now she asked me to write something sweet for her
Stevia, clover honey
saccharin, sweetest for the money
cyclamates, taste bud mates
sugar, old, but still wins
Aspartame-Nutrasweet twins,
Sucralose, new kid on the block
Splenda has the market lock
sucrose and fructose
Galactose
glucose
lactose from milk
and all of similar ilk,
most never dreamt of by the bees...
maple syrup from trees
but what is really sweet ?
