Appearances Can Be Deceiving
Bertie Bott's Every Flavored Beans,
jelly beans for the discerning palate.
When they claim to contain every flavor,
they mean every flavor.
The pursuit of specific ones is a most dangerous game.
I once savored a "cinnamon roll" flavored bean,
and have sought out another ever since.
A distinctive brown color with little whitish flecks,
I've been convinced I'd found it again more than once.
Alas, they have all turned out to be old soapy dishwater!
