If I was a veggie
Would I be lean and green?
I’d love to be
Like asparagus
Long and skinny
Or maybe I’d like
An afro
Like broccoli
Poofy and green
Maybe I’d be
A sugar snap pea
Goodness me
How about I was a Brussel sprout
A cabbage that was mini
And roasted tastes quite yummy
Of course I could consider
Being a green bean
In somebody’s dinner
But honestly
Green beans
Are quite boring
Celery
I’d have a crisp crunch
With carrots and ranch
I’d make up someone’s lunch
I wanted to say
I might be
A juicy tomato
But no
Technically
That’s a fruit
Its got seeds
Its not a root
But would you root
If I was a potato
Whether white or sweet
My taste buds love to eat
Those yummy starches
How I wish
They were low in calories
And carbs, please!
Oh, If i wanted
To put color on a plate
I could be zucchini
And squash, they are so great
What if I was an onion
Or a bell pepper
If I had jalapeño spice
That could be nice
There are so many yummy
Possibilities
If I wanted to be
A Delicious Veggie
I could be okra
Or a pickled cucumber
That’s dill
And served best chilled
Oh, could I be
A plate of spinach
Possibly
Oh, lettuce list the possibilities
Romaine, iceberg, red and green leaf, oh!
What if I was an avocado!
I’d make very tasty
Guacamole
All this talk of veggies
Is making me quite hungry!
