Let us look into that, <br />Yes, I will dear, <br />You know that our best friend must be near. <br /> <br />They say diamonds are a girls best friend, <br />If this is true, <br />Why are they measured in carrots then too. <br /> <br />Diamonds come in different shapes and colors, and styles <br />I asked her, 'I wouldn't just one do? ' <br /> <br />She said, ' If you love, you will buy the best! ' <br />I smiled and that is what I did, you know the rest! <br /> <br />Now, since I have bought my intended the diamond, <br />We no longer eat steak, <br />I'm on a diet of green on my plate. <br /> <br />The only thing I have of color, <br />Are my carrots, <br />And if I complain, <br />I quickly learned that all words are the same. <br /> <br />Words come in bunches, <br />So do carrots, <br />Now, if I mind my peas and q's <br />And do upset her, <br />I will be able to afford another type of dinner. <br /> <br />However, all that I have learn from this is, <br />Please allow your plate to full of good old carrots.<br /><br />Nadalia Bagratuni<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-never-promised-you-a-rose-garden/
