Poem - An apple a day keeps the doctor away


 


An apple a day, 

Keeps the doctor away,

Is a quote that’s been with us to

Intend to keep our vices away.


Yet many of us, 

Stick to them bad habits hard

And the apple just sits rotting 

In our fruit tray.


The intention is good! 

And our hearts damn close 

To making all illnesses go away.


But the action is lacking,

The tongue is smacking, 

The remembering it’s hit,

Of the day before yesterday.
