Zucchini In Hiding

Zucchini in Hiding David J Walker What am I supposed to do With this HUGE Zucchini That hid under the HUGE leaves Of its mother plant For a month Guarding it against a harvest It is at last three feet long And 10 inches around I think I could use it to Pound tent stakes into The ground I see there are recipes For Huge Zucchini Stuffed with Italian sausage And mushrooms and cheese That looks like it could feed An Army Or I could hollow it out To make a boat Assuming it could float Or Grow another and Carve both into those Wooden Dutch boy shoes Or I could have left it alone To grow on its own Big enough to Carve into a camper Attaching wheels and an awning Hooking it to the back of my Pickup truck Registering it as the only Zucchini Camper in the country Next year I swear (as I always have) To watch my garden with More care And keep checking by the The hour When the Zucchini’s start To flower in the morning By night it may be too late And as fate will have it I will discover another Huge Zucchini in hiding
