A salad for you, a salad for me,
With veggies so fresh and oh so free!
An onion so round and a carrot so bright,
A pepper so red with a delight.

A potato so creamy and a cucumber cool,
With corn so sweet, it'll make you drool!
Together they'll dance in a bowl so bright,
A colorful feast that's good for you, all right!

So chop chop chop, and mix mix mix,
And add a little dressing with a few tricks.
A tasty treat that's good for your heart,
A salad so yummy, it's sure to be a hit!
