Foreman was a dog of a man,
Talked and bullied all he can,
Johnson hesitated,
he got frustrated,
beetroot surely hit the spam, ham.

His owner turned beetroot red blushin

Old Nancy next door may be lookin!

Thanks to a lovely on line friend for the inspiration

Clem Kadidlehopper had two whoppers,
Two burgers with the works may be stoppers,
Double meat, egg, beetroot, tomato and cheese,
For a burger connoisseur this could only please,
No problem for Clem and his great big choppers.


alternate last line:  Clem woofed them down with his great big choppers....

I danced the dance of the unrestrained,

It felt so good I danced again.

At my gyrations, ladies swooned

(well if not, they would do soon)

I did not care, for this was me

In wild abandon for all to see.

I was hip, I was the man

My dancing moves, they were just grand.

Then I saw my children's faces... 

Beetroot red, heads in hands....

in the garden
the gardener digs and digs away
he pulls a hundred thousands weeds
he grew up a hundred thousands seeds
he grew peas red and round
and Pulls beetroot from the ground
spinach cauliflower are green
the basket full of peas and Beans
oranges both large and small
broccoli fit for Queen or King
onions tied up with a string
a very clever man is he
who grows so many things for me !!...

Never will she stop

beetroot chops

My daughter's Tenth time 

swinging across

Children behind waiting, 

their arms crossed in a strop

I call out and say, 

Being fair you are not

Then reaching quickly 

she climbed to the top

Pointing her finger toward

the near ice cream shop

I nod in agreement 

Both are smiling a lot 

My daughter runs over 

excited and hot

The New Diet

I've put myself on this new diet,
Trying to drop a dress size or two,
Believe me it's a taste sensation,
I'm loving it and think you will too.

So here is my secret to weight loss,
Success guaranteed to please,
The day I discovered sweet Karma,
Beetroot salad and Greek Feta Cheese.

My body feels free, newly awakened,
Skin tones, complexion much better,
Helped by one simple life choice,
A diet of Beetroot and Greek Feta....

troll a troll who whole was tall
taller than not being small
ate nettles thorns flowers and plants
spiders worms and sometimes ants
but they tickled and itched 
a tunnelly throat and tingly tongue
of a troll sized troll with a tomatoey tum
rotundly round and a beetrooty bum
red so red and red more red
a red tum and bum and small redly head
troll a troll who whole was tall
red and red and redder than some
a troll sized troll called Beetroot Bum
