Medicine Theme 1. Apples Or Doctors? Poem by Konstantin Ananin

An apple a day keeps the doctor away. (Proverb) .
Apples are so expensive these days; you may as
well have the doctor. (English Humor) .

- You see, an apple a day
Keeps the doctor away.
I haven’t had apples for
At least a year, but before
I kept to an apple diet.
- Do you mean that you had
Only apples for your meals?
- Exactly, but, when my apple bills
Grew enormous, I gave up,
And I have kept above
Water.
________- I can’t follow.
- Inflation! Apples are so
Expensive nowadays!
That’s no wonder, you may
Have the doctor and even,
I think, more than one.
