Best Herbs Poems

Here at our Cafe'
We serve the best brains in the City
We only pick the freshest 
The pink, the plump and pretty

So we trim off all the fat
And we cut-out all the meat
But Our recipe's a...

Can we cease from shouting at each other?
Can we relearn the ability to respect?
Can we not have a discussion with dignity?
Can we sit at the table of brotherhood and talk?

Can we not listen and evaluate the opinions of others?
In the public arena, especially politics and...

Marvelous Herbs

Herbs -
Nature’s
Marvelous
Gift of flavor -
Brightens the blandness
Of the ordinary -
Savory gracing tasteless -
Zest to nondescript dreariness -
Herbal wonders – healing remedies –
Seasoning’s magic to flavorless salt.

Some are bitter and often abhorred
Few are sweet and always desirable

To the public the man shows herbs
For Advert hundreds of proverbs
"Your worries and mine wisdom curbs!"
Lots of Adjectives and Adverbs;
On roads blares, neither dumb on kerbs
Voice screaming hoarse near touring Serbs...

But the Old Seller of New Herbs
Settles for nothing short of blurbs,
The problems of voice...

The Faeries Are Still Outside

Trying to cheer a garden up from the clay,
But the crabgrass won’t part
And the trees are snickering 
At the art-
Less way the faeries 
Sway while chanting,
Casting their spells—
Such an untalented group!  
Out of tune, with
Too often the lyric,
 “wha’ ta’...

of violet hues
wave in a breeze
a harvest for
making potpourri

Noah strove for enviro-protection.
Plants and beasts he saved section by section.
And now thanks to our brain
all that soon will remain
is a zoo and an herbal collection....

Herbs are so very savory
Each has its own great flavor.
Racing to my garden eagerly,
Beyond the veggies I do favor,
A whole lot of aromatic things,
Like thyme, rosemary, even sage.

Some folks prefer their food quite 
Plain without taste or any fun;
Really though, that’s no delight
Instead away, I...

My cathartic heart
threw away the finished leaves of bitter autumn's burning
I brewed myself a loving cup, made sweeter by my learning
tansy, bay with chamomile, bright meadow flowers to sip
tastes better far than poison to be found upon your lip...
