Isabel L. Lemons
My poor delicate taste buds cringe, whenever I try some lemons They are too sour; they give me headaches
Lemon Meringue pie is no exception, after no more than two bites of the treat, I am sick from the bitter-sweet yet overly bitter juice
Lemonade is off limits as well, While others indulge in the exciting juice I escape from it's tart properties, instead I drink water,
Still, the flesh appears appetizing and the sunny skin sings "try me again" Feeling the waxy outside momentarily pushes me to oblige,
Of course, I've been deceived again By the pungent flavors of a so-called fruit While I'm left, in need of an aspirin for my pounding headache
