There’s nothing that will make my soul more mellow
than a luscious bowl of freshly made green Jell-O.
It’s smooth and sweet, magnificent to taste.
And there’s no crust, which means there is no waste!

Thus every molecule will make me smile
as I spoon through the green translucent pile!
The perfect cubes demand my soft tongue’s touch.
Another reason I love it so much.

Jell-O slides down my awaiting throat,
gliding on a thin saliva coat,
then squishes into my acidic tummy.
Protein, carbs, very low-fat and yummy!

If I were marooned on some remote isle,
and I knew I would be there for awhile,
I’d pray I still had water, shoes, and socks,
and an air-tight family-size green Jell-O box!
