Pickles

sour pickles make me sick
all it takes is just one lick
dare, not truth, is what I pick
now I fear I will feel ick

to ease the torture, my nose I clip
lifting a green fiend to my lip
blah! Yuck! Would taste improve with spice?
or perhaps chill the beasts on ice?

to honour my dare, I fight down a slice
all the while hoping, my rival gets lice

Today, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
