What I love about coffee is its scent  

What I hate about nettles are their pain 

What I love about fire is its warmth  

What I hate about sharks are their scars  

What I love about stories are their adventures  

What I hate about the devil is his power 

What I love about family is its kindness  

What I hate about wasps are their flight  

What I love about wasps are their patterns 

What I hate about cities are their reluctance to stay 

What I love about the hills are their freedom  

What I hate about jealousy is the urge to rot your mind until there is nothing left but sadness  

What I love about the air is its tune   

What I hate about rats are their disease  

What I love about forests are their hope  

What I hate about darkness is its eyes  

what I love about books are their paper convincing you to go on.
