Best Soybeans Poems

Always having a problem with dairy,
having adverse side effects pretty fairly,
but being deprived of ice cream is just too much,
whereupon walking down frozen desserts aisle I got a hunch,

I daydreamed I was an ice cream queen,
making ice cream solely out of using soybeans,
helping people with...

Like Thoreau I sought out Walden’s Pond
For me, it was my grandmother’s field of soybeans
Lost in the bowels of a small gray shed I fancied a cabin
I stumbled on it when I was eight, an explorer, in the summer.

It became mine almost immediately, and I...

The green cuisine will make you lean.
Like Jeanne, Christine, or age eighteen.
Sardines, soybeans, along with greens
Will help you fit in smaller jeans.
The diet scene, you've seen umpteen!
You've worked out on the green machine.
Being lean they say is supreme.
Like if you are a strong marine.
Or when...

the quiet of the spring day was broken
by the noise and shouts in the fields
belching smoke the great iron beast 
dropping its sharp blades into the soil
took large bites into the soft belly of the earth

warm and moist the soil yielded to the blades
as the...

It was both a complicated and simpler place and time.
Mostly a quiet place tucked away, but not far off the beaten path.
Occasionally, a noisy and sometimes uncivil place, but very little crime.
A place though legally dry, yet illegally wet and filled with moonshine and wine.
A...

Dragon snuck in with the Basement Trolls, to watch a movie, one fine night.
They watched “The Day of the Triffids”, unbeknownst to us, creating our plight.
The next morning all Heck broke loose as we piled in our truck to go to town.
Farmer Brown’s fields had...

My friend farmer Shane has perfected new breeds
His corn and soybeans he's planted from seeds,
An early morning riser,
Using no fertilizer,
He spends most of his spare time pulling weeds.

With tomato and salt fish

In so many different ways
She really love it
So I surprising her today

Tofu is made from soybeans
Can absorb flavors of spices and marinades

Late in the day or afternoon
From windows in our living room
We watch deer begin to gather
Leaping over fences in fields
Searching eagerly for their meals
To our front porch they meander
Mothers protective of their fawn
Will hide them in brush all day long
Clear skies or inclement weather
They watch...

I'ts a vibe and its a pleasure. 
burn the mirrors, drown the sub-human machines,
I sing.
I sing of revolution and falsehood. 
murky depths and heights coveted only because of their daring. I sing 
of fools and clocks and black and white and yellow and red imbeciles...

The Look of a Giant Monster Who Eats Children and Puppies
Gnashing and slashing he crashes into my world
Taking over my soul, or trying to.
His sharp claws are scary to others
I have seen giant monsters before, and I will again.
I have tamed two, I am not...

Spring's Excitement
There are rhythms of Nature that no one controls
that farms use to advantage! Time's fishermen sailed
both with tides and fair breezes offshore in their boats
at each dawn and dusk's onshore brought home each day's haul.
Ours' a more subtle rhythm of moisture that's trapped
(by the...

I just want to tell Alicia Silverstone,
in a meat-eating world, she is not alone.
Her television commercial is quite cool
where she is seen swimming naked in a pool.
Although we will never see the ad on TV,
her message has come in loud and clear to me.
I abhor...

No rain so far,
nor stormy weather.
It's late July on a
quite afternoon.

A canopy of blue, and bright
Sun light is shining through.
An oasis of white with pockets
of grey and open sky, the kind              ...
