The Vegetable Plot
Brussel sprouts sprout on the stems
Cauliflowers flower as white gems
Cabbage green grow with rain,
Cabbage white purity to gain.
Curly kale swirl
As they curl and twirl.
Broccoli florets solid and tight
With graceful stems as they catch the light.
Green beans grow as they cling,
Pods swell sweetness to bring.
Lettuce, let us chew the cud.
Asparagus squeeze through the mud.
Marrow's stretch on the ground.
Melons rolling round and round.
With aching muscles and hearts lain bare
Providing food so healthy with tender care.
Gardeners work and dig the soil
As onwards they sweat and toil.
Thank you Irene for the lovely poem.
