my smoothie

lemon blonde, green-eyed kiwi
upon my lips strawberry red,
cheeks caressed by milky pale
savoring each fruit-bejeweled sip
in delight my smoothie will not fail

energizing in the morning
cooling in the depth of night
brain-restarting throughout the day
nothing, no one, but my smoothie
does me quite this way.

so so cooool, so satisfying
a sure friend for all times
restoring all the energies I need
and a kindness undeserved --
i love my smoothie; what a treat!
