Pickled
Pat loved pickled onions,
She ate them every day,
She had an addiction,
That kept her friends at bay.
Pat ate them in the mornings,
And every single night.
She did not smoke cigarettes,
As she might set herself alight.
Pat did not swallow pills,
Or narcotics of any kind
She was seldom ill
And she possessed a sound mind.
Pat did not overeat,
Or drink wine or beer at all,
Pickled onions were her passion,
Which led to Pat's downfall!
