Like a talented performer,
it leaves its taste bud audience begging for an encore.
Tinted green, creamy white,
and blanketed in piquant snow. 

Sometimes the show is too loud
and I have to stop mindlessly listening to your music;
The explosion of tang in my mouth
overwhelms me, and my eyes start to water.

When I don’t overindulge in you
like a fanboy who can’t get enough,
the most delightful warmth coats the entirety of the audience--
a warmth that coaxes them into listening to more.
