A gentleman from Lowerwells
threw the sweet walnuts away
and ate only the shells.
His friend from Waterstones
the pine nuts threw away
and ate the just the cones.
His cousin on Valentine's day
ate the colourful foil
and the chocolate threw away.
Many people do not care
the smart child tells
they throw life away
and eat just the shells.
