Notes About The Poem

Rue, a versatile herb known as the herb of grace due to historical use in religious rituals (regret), offers a wide range of benefits from its medicinal properties to its culinary (bitter taste) and pest-repellent abilities. It is crucial to exercise caution when harvesting and using rue due to its potential toxicity.
