There's No Way Out of It

For a diet there’s a number of clauses, and natural food brings many applause's, so for veggies I yearned, until I soon learned, most of us die from natural causes.

So true Lindsay.' How much didn't our Mothers know..)Or so the experts say.' Lock up your doors keep all germs away I wonder how the planet got to 8 billion? Souls alive. could it have been the mums? The ones they shut in to die alone In 2020/21 Because what is new, must have its say.' Oh and lucre that was nowhere to be Seen/ Per Scene.' Per se.)

Our House doctor was one of three partners. The eldest retired had arthritis, the second, a fitness fanatic, went for a run, came back, asked his wife for a beer, she brought the beer, but he had a massive heart attack and died instantly. The third was a darling, our family was with him for years. In his mid sixties the new partners and his patients, noticed he was forgetting alot - he had Alzheimer's - no-one escapes death. A very factual enjoyable limerick Lindsay. Hugs and blessings Jenn

Hello Jennifer ... doctors are only humans like us so they suffer the safe afflictions as we all do. Factual indeed Jennifer and nobody can escape that - thank you Jennifer - Lindsay

Yes, they're supposed to be good for us....However it is not always the case. They contain fiber--that's good. But they also contain things that might not be good for certain people. Try eating veggies and avoiding oxalates, for example. It's a cruel reality. You are right as usual....there's an exit door and we don't know where it lies.
