The Avocado

At first
I did not love
the avocado

It was not
the colour of its skin
that gave me pause

I love
the brilliant green colour
of its skin

I even love
the darker green shade
as it ripens

It was not
the flavour and taste
of the avocado either...really

But perhaps
I was unprepared
for its texture

It is often a reason
I choose not to like
something

I have grown to
appreciate
its creamy texture

Its health benefits
Impress me
and I chose to try again

I explored
Ways of adding one
to my diet

At first
I did not love
the avocado

And NOW
I find myself
Completely addicted!
