Onion

I, naughtily, peeled and peeled you to find the truth within, You have, dear, taught me the philosophy of nothingness; Each of your petals, like magical herbs, tickles my skin, Each leaf, as a united nation, enwraps your thickness...! In you is fulfilled the Buddhist concept of Nirvana, You are accused of arousing sensuality too; The Israelites, in each step, seeking flora and fauna, The Bible says each one missed you, restlessness in them grew...! One who wishes to kiss one's spouse should not eat you, they say, Each dish of each little home, yet, dear, you make delicious: Antioxidants, Blood Sugar, and the Digestive way, Symbol of protection, memories... you are auspicious...! Peel yourself selflessly... this is what every onion says, Resurrection means crucifixion too in humbler ways...!!!
