“Eat your Vegetables or No Desert,”
Started Young – Did not Convert.
The smell Alone – a Casserole,
Floating Peas – it Took its Toll.
Stewed Tomatoes and Cream Corn,
Cooking Cabbage gone Airborne.
Brussel Sprouts – Asparagus,
If did not Puke – Was a Plus.
Turnips, Beets, and Artichoke,
Just the Thought gives Me a Stroke.
Throw in Eggplant and Zucchini,
Makes me Long for Processed Weenie.
No amount of Camouflage,
Could Provide the right Mirage.
Now that I am well Aged Versed,
I will Eat my Desert First.
