Premium Member Different Kinds of Magic Beans

A dichotomus tale
About a boy named Jack
Who sold a cow for beans
Magic which they did lack

Bean's one side held adventure 
Pure gold waited for him there 
But danger from the giant
Made up the bean's full pair

This dichotomous tale
Delightful butterbeans
Magic beans seem to be
Their fiber load does clean

Guaranteed one's heart to heal
Fiber removes a fat load
Its gases accumulate
In the intestine's abode

The dichotomic sounds
Its trumpet noise explodes
Those dichotomous beans
Hide, hide today they goad

Just for fun<:)
