Vegetables and Fruits

Ya know, you should eat vegetables and fruits,

Out of snacks?  You can use them as substitutes.

For instance, there are orange and apple,

And if you can, reel them in and grapple.


I’m nine, so I have to eat nine veggies a day,

Whereas scientists say, “Eat more before the souffle.”

My favorite’s probably the onion (if it's with soup),

I don't really like them, but my dad always gives a whoop!


And of course, we can't leave out fruits, like the kiwi,

That one I like, so when I see it I shout out “wheeeeeee!”

It's probably my fave, though I also like strawberry,

That's why I wish there was something like a strawberry-kiwi fairy!


So, all in all, I like fruits; vegetables, not really.

I’d rather eat nine fruits than nine vegetables, ideally.
