 Dinner Time

It is time to eat
My mother said
I look at my plate
I am filled with dread

All that I see
Are things that are green
Green chicken and peas
And even green beans

Green water, green bread
Thoughts fill my head
What color might I be
At the end of this tread?

I eat it all up
Hoping that I just might
But wait, oh no!
The dog ate my last bite
