Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Spinach


Though spinach does have iron content,

Long ago in a study done,

Scientists did misrepresent

The iron amount by ten to one.

Then when the Popeye cartoon came

He ate a can of spinach to

Quickly get super strength with aim

Of beating up bad guys to do.

So parents did use Popeye for

An example why spinach should

Be eaten by the kids much more,

Might taste bad, but really was good.


Though spinach iron "fact" was a lie,

Kids chowed it down, thanks to Popeye.
