There was a whirlwind romance
Between two condiments.
The Salt and powdered Pepper,
They’d loving sentiments.
Though one was very spicy
And one was like the sea,
They lived and loved and laughed in
Romantic harmony.
Though Salt was used quite freely
The Pepper’s use was rare.
The Salt was pinched and sprinkled
But Pepper’s coverage—bare.
And while they were both zesty
When tasted one-by-one,
Combined—entwined—entangled
Their flavor’d awe and stun!
They should definitely pursue spicy love while they cayenne! After all, you never know when their opportunity might come to a cloves…

You’re right. Still, it would be sage of them to proceed gingerly and take their thyme.
