If everyone had diabetes,
I wonder what the world would be like?
Would we give up our motorised transport
And all travel round on a bike?
For I?m guessing we?d all be more active,
And eat fewer biscuits and buns,
And maybe some chemist would come up with
A sweetener that doesn?t cause the ?runs?!
We wouldn?t treat children with chocolates,
Nor feed them on pizzas and pies,
They?d learn from the start about footcare,
And how to look after their eyes.
Our food would contain far less sugar,
And we?d choose with more care what we ate,
There?d be warnings, like cigarettes, on packaging,
And we wouldn?t pile so much on our plates.
Maybe we?d see rapid progress
On things now affecting us all,
So we wouldn?t need charity for funding,
And the politicians all would play ball!
Maybe one day it will happen,
For we?re 300 million strong,
And the way that the world seems to be heading,
The rest will all join before long!
😉😱
