Past Its Use By Date

A tub of yoghurt,
That's been too long on the shelf.
Has lost some flavour,
Time has caused this stealth.
The price reduced
On this sorry tub
Feeling lonely and abused
As passing shoppers snub
This yoghurt, past its use-by date
That was wanting to be purchased
Before it is too late.
