                The most important thing in life

By Luke Ritta

 

 

With out it what are we? We are a decaying corpse rotting in mud!

Warm, crusty, hard, soft,

bread is life!

Green, red, yellow, white, the vegetable is life.

O food, food, food

With out it what are we? We are a decaying corpse rotting in mud!

Juicy, succulent meat and firm, fresh fish.

           O food, food, food,             

You make us happy, love, sad, ill, upset, ecstatic, glad even regretful,

You make us feel life!

O food, food, food

With out it what are we? We are a decaying corpse rotting in mud!
