Yorkie Puddings and Roasties

Form: Free Verse

I can’t be a vegetarian 
As I don’t like green things from the garden 
I don’t like things in pods 
They taste better from a tin if I must 
But I do like eggs with mushrooms 
Hash browns and tomatoes 
With a few rashers of bacon on the side

I can’t be a vegetarian
Roast cabbage just isn’t nice
And cauliflower only works in cheese sauce
But my yorkie puddings and roasties
Need something more
Thin slices of beef, roasted rare

I can’t be a vegetarian
Because I will not eat sprouts!
