Mint

Life is a mint
The taste is sharper than flint
If you don't get the hint
Let me give you a glint

Life is a breath of fresh air
It makes you feel whole as one pair
Its something to be shared
Its something to be cared

Life is a double edged sword
Even though its ignored
It can make you feel like the sky has been soared
Or it can make you feel like an unplugged cord

Life feels cheap
It can make you weep
It can make you reckless and leap
But a mint is something I can assure life is without a peep
