A lemon's sour,
Not bitter as you exclaim
So the fruit makes you pucker
And for that there is no shame.
When it get a little well chosen aid
From sugar and ice in a glass
It becomes a treat for time spent in the shade
And improving that, I'm afraid, the fruits aren't up to the task.
As for the avocado that's so rich and creamy
It's enhanced by the addition of the lemon
Which makes it a friend not an enemy
So best to enjoy, what we've come to depend on.
Changing the lemon would be a shame.
