An Ode to Three Lemons

You pucker and squint

At the slightest hint

Of a lemon’s bitter taste.

So why not throw it in the waste?

Life deals its harsh lemons as well,

Till you feel like you’re going through earth’s hell.

Better to make lemon meringue pie,

Than constantly bitch, moan and cry.

This yellow-white pastry, o’ so bittersweet

Will brighten your smile as you smack and eat.

Whenever you feel hurt or misunderstood,

Remember the lemon, and make it into something bittersweet good
