These are all the things you need

weeps a shower of warm raindrops

Harold loved marigolds, his favourite flower
One day he ate some and they tasted quite sour
So that was the end
Of his passion, my friends
After that, he only ate roses with carrots and cauliflower...

Broccoli
Cauliflower
Kale too
I want meatloaf
What about you?

Lettuce with dew

Tomatoes, a few

What about you?...

Seals seal their nostrils, can stay underwater for half an hour
OUR body would float to the surface and looking like cauliflower
Like kinda dead
Eyes widespread
One breath every hour could leave us with a taste quite sour...

No Almond Joy for coconut
Please don't suggest roasting chestnuts
Stifled by sage and pumpkin spice
Cauliflower rice won't entice
Though blasphemous, I'm not bluffing
I am not thankful for stuffing
He picks out onions, celery
All for love of finicky me.
