Don't you like Lemonade?

Would you stop flipping me?
I'm not some pancake.
And enough with the trampling:
There are prettier stepping stones.

You keep your cake and claim another's:
So sweet, its sickening.

In fact, if everybody was as sweet as you,
there'd be no diabetes.

Then again, what's life without sweet things?
(I remember a funeral home matching your scent.)

And so what if I'm small and yellow?
Maybe less sweet than sour?

It wasn't fair to squeeze once,
than drop me like life gave you lemons.

But its understandable;
friends don't match your tastes.

Haha, thanks Krysti! I just wish I had the talent to illustrate my poems.

There is power in the pen.

I liked the idea you had with this. I'm not as creative as you to come up with original material.

But good job over all.
