BROCCOLI RESPONSE

SHORT POEM IN RESPONSE TO:

“You. Are. Bonkers. To give broccoli the shun
When it comes to health and flavour it's deffo the best one” 
(@DrWhoBritish on Twitter)


You’re right, absolutely
I really cannot disagree
So why did people in our shop
Clear shelves of all but broccoli

Is it a vegetable too far
Does it bring bad memories
As every other box was emptied
Except for lonely broccoli

I couldn’t find one lemon 
Not an onion could I see
Yet they left so much broccoli
I thought “That’s all the more for me!”

Why did swarms of shoppers
Desperate for some veg to buy
Ignore this brassical delight
Learn to love your broccoli
