Best Sprouts Poems

This is quite a bit overdue my friends
It's an ode to Brussel Sprouts
Those delicious spherical bundles of joy
Not too popular hereabouts

Poor wee fellows just want to be loved
Along with the other veggies
They've long had a real image problem
About as popular as a wedgie

Thinking of starting...

Me, the contrarian, 
	hardcore vegetarian,
Would rather eat wombat snouts
	than brussels sprouts....

When spring comes, as the tide
Like maize in a pot, it's time to dance and hop 
The missing sun melts the snow, it will not be denied
It starts pretty quiet, with a little 'pop'
Green meadows and many delicious lamb chop

If all of you out there are good Boy Scouts
Better be sure to eat your brussel sprouts
And have hog jowls along with some grits
Even if someone said Shallotte is the pits.

In church basement, Boy Scouts are meeting;
When they began, God are always greeting
So from all...

Brussels sprouts for breakfast, Brussels sprouts for lunch,
Sprouties served with iced champagne to make the perfect brunch!
Boiled and drowned in butter, or juiced to make a punch,
Brussels sprouts the tasty treat that I just love to munch!

Now I love to have a pet around but...

Most unpopular vegetable is Brussels Sprouts
Have taken a survey and I find there's no doubt
Now don't take a fit
For unpopularity they're it
Well, strangely I love 'em more than sauerkraut...

We should only eat six sprouts at Christmas
Deem the council who are in Leicestershire
Its no joke, it’s a serious message at Xmas
To reduce waste and not make it higher

We must cut back on crisp pigs in blankets
And should only have three stuffing balls
Also cut back...

A seed lays on the ground
by and by it sprouts
clawing into the soil
digging in deep its tap root
energetically spreading its roots
from its husk a stalk emerges
growing fast it reaches up
harvesting the sun and rain
in stature it climbs skywards
jaunty petals blow in the breeze
kicking out more...

Words and phrases come cascading out
When the moon is full and I eat sauerkraut
It's spooky for sure
My thoughts are impure
But as long as they rhyme, I'll munch on bean sprouts...

Fallowed mind on barren ground toils
Winter's cold streams radiant beams foil
No incubating current cuts through the dense soil
Muses' bright glint the dark, thick clouds roil
Blipping sparks can't light my sensory console
A dormant seed sprouts on a rocky knoll
Promising strands on frozen surface stroll
Chilling winds over...

From the ancestors
Generations to generations
Lives carry on like new sprouts 
And flourishing like a jungle
Newborns are our hope
Nowadays newborns are totally different
Imbedded in an aircond surrounding
With love and care
A lot of toys
A lot of playmates
Hyperactive, alert and wise
Will carry on the family tree
And our mission

newborn bulbs from sprouts
unfurl into green leaflets
a robin twitters

tulip buds will stretch
to greet the morning sunlight
colors of rebirth
