Dynamite, Vegemite
I have just read a mail from Deb M,
to say that I'm a Viking,
A warrior me? that sounds exciting.
Warriors like Vikings are very hard to beat,
Especially when they are fighting
About what is best to eat.
The Vikings love Vegemite,
Their opponents favour Marmite,
Both have similar flavours,
But Vegemite has more bite.
It hits the tongue,
With a wham,
It has a unique taste,
Not sweet like jam
Or Marmite,
Marmite is more subtle,
It lacks that Ozzie bite
I suppose if you are not a Viking
Marmite would taste alright.
It's a shame my fellow warrior,
Surname begins with M,
She could be Goddess D Marmite,
That would please them,
Oh dear, that would cut us to the core.
The only way to solve that,
Is to start another war
Vikings and Vegemite evermore!
