Impromptu

she's a wild
flower with
rose hips
and broad
leaves

she to me
is medicinal
and can be
prepared in
many ways

she can be
eaten raw
like a salad
a musky taste
with a hint of mint

she can be
made into a 
tea and drunk
hot or cold not 
needing honey

or fed with
garlic and
mustard
holding
her

close to
my chest
picante
driving
away

all
my
ailments
