Clementines

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

a healthy fruit

"

January's chill
chased by warming air
Make clementine's arrival
a delightful affair
 
If you can find those darlings
there won't be any seeds
Every sweet clementine
is a juicy fruit one needs
 
The pleasures of the morn
when enhanced by this choice
Make consuming several
a reason to rejoice
 
Fruits in the diet
are a path to more health
Chosen by the wise
who understand wealth
 
If your goal is to be
a healthier person it is true
Delights of superior foods
will bequeath more years to you
 
The bodies we inherit
are a product of evolution
Fruit has been a major food
for a healthier solution
 
Our systems developed
eating foods that were there
Our environment determines
what the body can bear
 
Knowing the person you are
and who you want to be
Requires the awareness
of what any human hopes to see
