Paean To A Non-Vegetarian

"Eat your veggies," as a nipper I was told
but I'd hide 'em on me lap so Mum wouldn't scold
then all the quicker feed 'em to the dish-licker
before they were even cold
now I'm older not sadder but wiser
and do enjoy a tasty appetiser
they may appear to look like a pear
here's a myth I wish to quash
tho'

Vegetarian Plight

Eat everything that has the best 
Vegetarian plants to yourself 
Beautiful people are happy to see. 

Everything is beautiful that I plant
I don't plant much, I can plant enough
To collect enough to take care of it. 

Plant everything that is useful to you
Plant near to your house and backyard
Vegetables, spicy plants and herbs. 

As your

Premium MemberGreen Needs

Indigo moods within my chest
Not choosing foods like chicken breast
I’m gently beginning vegetarians quest 
And I’m pretty hungry I must confess

I still eat butter I still eat cheese
So I’m not exactly following lead
Of strict vegans who’d turn up nose
Because I haven’t let dairy go

Now I do enjoy almond milk
The taste of cows milk makes me

Vegetarian fox invited new friends to tea
His old ones had disappeared rather suddenly.
After they were drugged, he remembered he was a carnivore.
He ran to get barbeque sauce from the fox next door.

Premium MemberBeing Veggie :1000:

Here I am.
From top to toe
A meat-free human
Don't ya know 

People asked me
Why the shoes?
I do not eat them.
I'd often muse.. 

But now I'm older
And life's moved on
With larger issues
To dwell upon 

I'll soon be forty
Years a veg.
No highland castle
Or trust fund hedge 

My account is clear.
My conscience too
But still with plenty
More to do 

It

Premium MemberVegetarian Fox Our Cabbie

Vegetarian fox offered his services to me.
The other bunnies said no until they knew he was free.
He’s a cabbie, I said, and he takes all kinds about.
They watched him carefully for years with bunny minds full of doubt.

Vegetarian fox finally asked us for a dollar a night.
The bunnies refused, they are incredibly tight.
Since we get

Premium MemberHonored Vegetarian

There was a beef lover under duress
for mocking leeks and watercress
But meat he’s rejected
so he’s now been elected
to give the State Of The Onion Address

Greeness they swollen
Raw or cooked
In a non-meat and non-gluttony way
A truely remarkable act of
Protection of wild life and pets
Maybe a good proposal for
A future memorial day

Premium MemberI Am I Am a Vegetarian -

If a cat could talk
Would he bark
If a bird could meow
Should he fly?
Man am I hungry 

If a mouse ate pizza 
Would it be topped  with anchovies
I dunno No I like my fish raw with milk
Yeah, still am hungry 

If a dog had 2 tales (tails)
One for waging and one for lying
Would he be

No Reacting

Not reacting you  can stop the pain,
Not reacting you can change the fate
Not reacting, when the world needs your voice
Not reacting, when there is no choice...
Being passive, when  the world needs your action
Living only  for your own satisfaction
Your own personal cell is the whole world for you
Take a look  outside someone

The Caring Primate Jane Goodall

A young Jane liked to observe, native birds and animals
making notes, sketches, and reading zoology and ethology
Her fascination of animal behavior, and their fundamentals
has taken her back in time, to work out their chronology

Jane Goodall for many years, lived among chimpanzees
to study the primates of Tanzania, in their natural habitat
immersing herself in their lives, and

Cross River Gorillas

Cross River Gorillas, are critically endangered
because humans have encroached, on their land
They share ninety eight percent, of our human DNA
but there are some humans, who want them for pay

Gorillas function, with a developed social structure
and are led by adult males, known as silverbacks
They have a vegetarian diet, for their life of culture
spreading the seeds of
