"Litlle Poetry" by JD

"A tiny bit of yerba mate with a tiny bit of lemongrass
Big googles, white coat, and crazy hair, mixes into jars
This potion spins you like a rocket going to the sky
With fresh breath, a strong heart, and wings of a mighty firefly
Healthy and powerful, better than coffee
Great for your tummy, but nothing like a toffee"
