Notes About The Poem

I hope I haven't made you hungry with this one..lol

Tossed Salad

Mr. Oil and Mrs. Vinegar 
Had gone out on a date 
They tried to stay together 
But were forced to separate
 
They had gone out one more time 
With Mr. Pepper and Mrs. Salt 
But they all got mixed together 
And It wasn't any of their fault
 
Mrs. Lettuce and Mr. Tomato 
Invited Mr. Radish and his wife 
But all of them had gotten split apart 
When Mr. Hand had brought his knife
 
Mrs. Bread and Mr. Butter 
Were both there for the feast 
And they both sat down together 
Right beside the rare roast beast
