Poet's note: I wrote this poem in October 2020. We have now switched to using honey as our choice of sweetener for beverages and food in general as a healthy alternative to plant based sugar or artificial sugar which may slowly harm us medically and physically in time.
The poem aims to eulogies honey as a health giving food supplement and a natural way to keep diabetes at bay , which both my late father had and my mother suffers from now. I feel honey could be a god-given panacea for many of our medical problems and healthy living.
