The Healthy Eating Steeplechase

An orange takes an early lead,
followed by a melon.
Garden peas are catching fast,
so too is the lemon.

Granny Smith’s are overtaking.
Lettuces are gaining.
Kiwi’s move from out the pack.
This is entertaining.

The orange takes the lead again,
now grapes are rolling clear.
Broccoli, asparagus 
are getting very near.

We’re nearly at the finish,
and this is getting close.
Trees and soil are cheering
around the winning post.

Pears are in the mix as well.
This is a humdinger.
Yes, a photo finish,
and everyone’s a winner!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
