Elizabeth Smith Poet Couplet

Jack Spratt

JACK SPRATT

Mc Donald's food  is unhealthy it's thought
Food is food no matter where it's bought

When encountering starvation on your traveled road
You'll not hearing them saying "McDonalds? I'd rather eat a toad!"

People in war zones are thin but not by choice
They have no McDonalds to make them fat of course

It's not the food making Jack Spratt's wife fat
Overeating is where the problem's at 

Cholesterol and calories are not what it's about
It's greedy gobbling like the food will run out

Exercising her legs more than her mouth
AND
Mrs. Jack's rear end then wouldn't be going south
