I would love to eat something

that would not sit in my stomach

I could eat it while I sing

and I don't think I would need

to chew my food, not at all

it would not taste like the fall.

Would it taste like anything

if it didn't hit my mouth?

Would it taste like anything

if I could not taste one bit?

Have you thought of eating food

that was green and sometimes rude?

It could insult your knife

and say things like, "Don't use that!

You should not poke or stab

things that were living and bled.

Only eat your vegetables!"

At least thats what my radish said.

"Only eat your vegetables!"

At least that's what my radish said.

Have you considered eating

lovely beets purple and not mean?

Have you considered eating

something green and quite slimy?

I'm thinking brussels sprouts.

Yes, those nasty brussels sprouts.

I have heard they have iron

if you need that mineral

Do you need some iron?

You could eat that instead of meat.
