Oh No! It’s Teatime!

It’s teatime! Is it broccoli?

Or meat that’s full of fat?

Or lots of soggy spinach coz

I do NOT fancy THAT!Or mash that’s green and lumpy?

Or rice, a messy goo?

Or gravy that’s like water:

I’d give the lot to you.I’d rather eat a picnic or

a sticky party tea;

a sweetie shop of chocolate

would be the best for me.But no, I have to face my ‘greens’,

it’s lucky that my cat

likes all the things I HATE to eat;

he’s growing very fat!
