Roses are blue, <br />violets are red. <br />Sugar is bitter, <br />or sour instead. <br /> <br />Emeralds are red, <br />rubies are green. <br />Happy is sad, <br />Fat is lean. <br /> <br />Up is down, <br />water is dry, <br />Clean is dirty, <br />the earth is the sky. <br /> <br />The head is the foot, <br />heaven is hell, <br />love is hate- <br />Oh, well. <br /> <br />Always be wary <br />of being contrary, <br />and making a fiction <br />of contradiction.<br /><br />Sonny Rainshine<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-contrary/
