The Lemon

I wandered like a lemon, Over hill and dale, My skin was looking yellow, My complexion rather pale. I rolled on down a ridge, Just trying to get a grip, Taking in what nature offered, Alas, it was giving me the pip. I started feeling seedy, I'd been exercising for an hour, No matter what I seemed to do My mood remained quite sour.
