I'm rather fond of taters,
But don't like stringy beans.
Can't stand the sight of spinach.
My mother call's it 'greens'.
Pumpkin has a tough, thick skin,
But can be as soft and mushy.
Sometimes carrots are okay,
Zucchini's wet and slushy.
Onions make my eyes water -
I like peas in the shell.
But you can keep your brussel sprouts,
Parsnips and swedes as well
You see, I don't like vegetables,
To me they're not a winner.
Yet every night my mum insists,
I have a heap for dinner.
