Eat Vegetable

Good
Essential for health
Best to eat

Grab a bite
Yucks!
Bitter!
But . . .
Forcing myself
To gulp vegetables
On my plate

Day by day
Year by year
Live with such taste
But . . .
At my twelfth year
My tongue doesn’t taste
Bitter vegetables

The fresh leafs of vegetables
Reaps delicious taste
Rich feelings of enjoyment
Crushing vegetables with my teeth
Tasting every pieces of it passing by my tongue
Before entering the throat

Upon interacting with Y Prior, Be With Us, Sharmishtha Basu and Toni Andruikitas about their vegetables consumption experiences (at my Body & Stomach Needs poetry), it struck me to tap upon my younger age experiences in vegetables.  It is a memorable event. Thanks to them for bringing out my memories. Wish you all have good days and thank you.

Swollen Bite Culprit

Finally
Finally
Finally, the culprit is known
Swollen ants’ bites
Is caused
Is caused by
Him.
Too fast to stop!
Pluck out his milk bottle
A drop from the teat
He wipe it onto
His pillow.
No wonder
No wonder
Attract the ants.

My son had seven bites on his legs. At first, his leg was itchy and he caught an ant on the floor. I thought the ant had bitten him from the floor. Shockingly, his doings was clear in front of me as described in the above poem.
