Towards a new season
Changes in silence
from summer to autumn
Earth's new costume
The light is falling
Cold nights
The fields with, 
white blanket of frost
As glass crystals flash
Ripe fruits and vegetables
Blushing cheeks
Small children hands
Making jams,
apple cake
and some wine
Autumn in fire
the apples are harvested
They give us
a juicy taste
of the summer

Vegetables Have Feelings Too
Vegetables have feelings too


Cauliflower Cathy
Put on her Sunday best
Forgetting it was Saturday
She hadn’t had much rest

Working in the garden
This place she called her home
Tending to her children
She never was alone

Yet something it was missing
She felt it deep inside
So Cauliflower Cathy
Sat on the ground and cried

She...

Premium Member Valentine Vegetables
Vegetables are so versatile I use them every day
Such lovely shapes and colours, they are so bright and gay
I always use them in my cooking
Or eat then raw when no one is looking

What is there not to love about the humble carrot?
I peel it tenderly,...

Premium Member Minced Vegetables In Poetry Soup
Do you think that I mince my words
like one preparing a pot of soup—
dice it up and roll it in!—
the more floating fragments, the merrier,
no matter the mishmash to the tongue?
And how attractive to the eye
a carrot sliced to bright orange shreds,
seasoned with a dash...

Vegetables


      A huddle of potatoes on a plate

      Called to the beans, “You're late, you're late.”

      As all the peas hopped round about.

      While a...

Anybody is well fed
if they like vegetables that are red.
There are onions, tomatoes, beets, and kidney beans.
Don’t forget vegetables that are green.
They include peas, lettuce, green beans,
artichokes, zucchini, cabbage, and lima beans.
They are healthy things to eat at any scene.
We have to include vegetables that...

Premium Member Rainbow Seeds
Rattling like Skittle packets in my hand,
seeds so miniscule will become so grand.

Bull's Blood Beets and Brandywine Tomato
begin the extensive garden rainbow.

Scarlet Nantes Carrots hide in the earth,
while Cronus Pumpkins expand showy girth.

Honeygold Corn boasts a barbecue treat.
Sweet Banana Peppers reach for the heat.

Green abounds...

We Used To Go To the Store Together
We used to go to the store together.
Picking out vegetables was her Glory,
‘Let’s get a nice, Vibrant one!
No, not that one, THIS one!’
She would say.
She aimed for the vegetables
When we arrived,
Like a kid aims for the cotton candy
At a carnival.
Vegetables!

And then, I would try to...

The Vegetable Garden

The garden beckons in the newness of the morning –
 Soft earth giving up the evening chill
  As long sunbeams kiss the soil good morning.

Straight lines of carrots with curly tops
 Dig deep into the daylight hours
  Reaching down to be,...

Premium Member Flavors of a Canvas
Her canvas awaits the first scoop,
 She dips her brush in the soup
 Bouillabaisse caresses her canvas,
 Stirring the senses of her palate

 She dips her brush in yet
 As the stove heats up her palette,
 Painting the dawn sky
 With tints of butternut squash

Food Talk
Carrots talk
Peas sing
A poet is the tangerine

"Celery," said Lettuce.
"What?" Celery said.
"What do you dream of when you go to bed?"

"I dream of people's faces
Coming so near
Eating my loved ones and friends so dear!

I know one day
That I'll be next
Until then, I'll do my best

To look...

Premium Member 'there Is Life After Meat'
Eating vegetarian is easy, delicious and tasty,
     it is not weird, mushy, or bland or flavorless;
imaginative combinations of recipes can be created,
           it is not just salads but a cornucopia bountiful.

I...
