We've all gone nuts for peanuts
we're not talking Charlie Brown,
Snoopy & Woodstock
but rather the legume that
could give you anaphylactic shock.
What's more if Rottweilers are chasing you,
give them peanut butter to chew,
it acts like superglue
and stops vicious dogs from biting you.
George Washington Carver
invented peanut shampoo
whilst before Jimmy Carter was president,
peanuts he grew.
Peanuts are delicious
they're also uber goober* nutritious,
astronauts eat them in space
and a Snickers bar means you'll win a race,
even a Marathon.
* another word for a peanut

ReplyDeleteThe use of the words "anaphylactic shock" and "goober" in the same poem make this one of my favourites.
