Carrots or carats
the second but a cash crop
to pay for the first.

Two men are given
whole wheat bread or cold hard cash,
One rises, the other leaves.
~~~~~
Dandelion tea
sugar coated rose petals
Nature extended.
~~~~~~
Two delicate cups
one tea-stained, one pristine white
birthday cake untouched
~~~~~~~
He holds out his spoon
filled with Cheerios and milk
heart and body feast.
~~~~~~~~
Two spoons, one desert
each tries to feed the other
children taking notes.
~~~~~~~~~
Two donuts inhaled
then hamburger, coke, and fries
afternoon slump comes.
~~~~~~~~~~
OK, I'll stop now
before you're fed powdered milk
instead of whole grain.

(If you do not know our expressions - you may be from a non-English speaking country, the sentence above is just my fun way of saying, please don't copy without permission. Thank you.)
