Sugar and Spice

by HMS Siren

"He is cracked black pepper, spicy and sharp. He has a pungent aroma that energizes the room and burns the tongue but in a mildly pleasing way. You can taste the pine and the nuttiness and sometimes something fruity when he sulks. It's out of routine but it's still entirely him." [Aesthetic poetry drabbles that came out of nowhere. Can't explain. It's good for the soul though.]

A/N:

Hails: Here's the third installment. I liked doing Shiemi's a lot.

Shiemi is ginger. Fresh and from the underground, underrated but good. She's best in both sweet situations and savory circumstances and her virgin, minty aftertaste slathers lips and teeth like a tasteful balm. Her flavor ingrains into the mind like needles in a plushy pin cushion and she always leaves you coming back for more.

She has her secrets and her icy-heat and you have to peel away the thin exterior to get her full potential.

She's also a palate cleanser, neutral and easy on the taste buds. She rubs and clears your mouth of the most recent disaster and prepares you for the next because you never know what's coming. But she's trusty and loyal and a breath of fresh air that never lets you down.

Shiemi is ginger.
