AN ODE TO NUTS

Almonds, cashews, hazelnuts
Pistachios and walnuts too
All crunchy and all nutty
I love to devour you

Sitting in my studio or
When I'm on the go
Nuts are so nice to munch on
Peanuts are pretty average though (Unless it's ground up. Then it's sort of okay)

Hmm munching is not the right word
Actually, I nibble bit by bit
I must eat as though I'm a little bird
because nuts are so calorific

Funny-looking, small and curvy
A special kind of delicious
I just wish you weren't so fatty
(But it's okay) – apparently nut-fat is quite nutritious

North America should be glad
That I am not a squirrel
Because if I was, I would have
Eaten/hidden all the nuts, until there was no more
