Broccoli, Brussel And Cuke

If in all innocence
broccoli brings out flatulence
not to dwell but how many unfortunate smells
will it impart from a single floret
and in the end when it rends
does it sound like a bassoon or clarinet?
And what about the brussel sprout?
No doubt it will create heady fallout
and if on the quiet you ever diet or fast
as you are and repeat all you eat
this gas too at last shall pass.
Also the humble cucumber
which on you may do a number
what light wind
breaks through yonder soft butt?
Smile if while seated at the dinner table
as you may be able to blame the mutt.

My doc says broccoli is good for me

   I'm here to say it ain't my cup o' tea

      I prefer meat and taters

          Juicy beefsteak termaters

            Onions are fine , but spare the broccoli

Imagine diving into a pool of broccoli 
Oh the aroma and sensation
And then perhaps
A river of cheddar cheese 
Emptying into the pool
Oh what a delight 
I can smell and taste the experience
And then maybe a wooden fork
To start shoving all the broccoli
Down one’s throat
Oh the beautifulness 
But don’t choke
Slowly enjoy the broccoli
Maybe rain will come
Showering with a vodka sauce
I just love my broccoli

By Michael Liguori and Robert Liguori

Dagwood Bumstead 
Probably has been in the company of broccoli 
We know that he and Blondie like to Eat
Tarzan most likely has been in the company of broccoli 
Especially in the Jungle, everything grows there
Batman and Robin eat on the down low, they have probably seen a little cold broccoli when fighting Mr.  Freeze
the cast of Archie Bunker often eats on the show
Do they love broccoli? 
I do not know 
Ask Meathead when you see him

I want to know who reading this adores broccoli 
You can eat broccoli, so many different ways,
Broccoli likes to float in cheddar cheese soup it seems 

Has anyone ever put barbecue sauce on broccoli? 

How about deep fried breaded broccoli 
Then dipping it in a bowl of barbecue sauce 
Wouldn’t that be fantastic? 
And so healthy!

I have on occasion eaten barbecue ribs 
Made for me by the local Asian market place 
Delicious 

Is a barbecue rib the same thing as breaded deep fried broccoli covered in barbecue sauce? 

No, I don’t think so 

Because I just invented breaded, deep-fried, barbecue broccoli

Wow, doesn’t that read as deliciousness !?!

Take the Broccoli

Take the pill,
take the advice,
take down yesterday
screw back in any loose screws.
Remember right is tight.
Take a pic of your dinner
at the diner
send it to yourself
take a moment to absorb
the broccoli you hate.
Say a pray at the end of the day,
take the end of the day
twist it around your finger
as a memory.
In the morning
take a pill
take a look at your finger
try to remember
what to take with you
into the dwindling hours.

Premium MemberBroccoli and Cheese

Broccoli and cheese,
they go so well together,
just like you and I.
We're two good ingredients.
Won't you join me in this soup?

M Is For Mammoth

M is for mammoth, big as a barn,
with long woolly hair that's much warmer than yarn.
He's 15 feet tall from his toes to his head,
(much too big to keep in the gardening shed)
He's got really big tusks and he weighs 13 ton,
and he stomps on saber tooth tigers for fun.
He wandered the plains munching bushes and grass,
when a blizzard surprised him and froze his fat mass.
5000 years later when the weather was nice,
it thawed just a bit and he burst from the ice!
The scientists flocked round to skin and de-bone him,
with a bunch right behind who were hankerin' to clone him.
If the cloning succeeds and the Doc's have their way,
We'll be hip deep in mammoths the very next day!
Then us gardening folk can despair of our broccoli,
cause its tough enough dealing with crows by the flockly,
and raccoons by night, and woodchuck by day, 
and running 'round chasing Mizz Bunny away.
We all know for a fact that no chicken wire fence,
will keep out a mammoth. (they're just too immense)

Premium MemberMac and Cheese In a Broccoli Wood

I have a craving for cheese
Milky smooth and oozy;
Hot and melty, buttery
Cheese sauce smothering
My broccoli wood
It’s cheesy 
Joy.

Premium MemberChild's Ode To Broccoli

More nutritious
Than a bean,
I do appreciate 
Your green,
But raw,
You are extremely crunchy,
Roasted,
Just a mushy-munchy.
Steaming 
Makes you awfully wet.
Sorry -
‘Still don’t like you yet!

Mrs Broccoli

The broccoli was quite bushy,
and always pretty pushy.

At times she became mushy
with her friend Mr. Sushi.

She always felt lonely,
missed her one and only.

They used to be quite the bunch,
when they gathered at lunch.

He suddenly wilted and died
for many days she had cried.

She now found her only squeeze
for she had met Mr. Cheese.

She always loved to be tossed
in his very special sauce.

Sir Sprout of Broccoli

In the land of The Vegetarian,
Lies a land beyond Green Sea
In the realm of the Gourmet Table
Dwells Sir Sprout of Broccoli.

A beaming knight, crest held up high,
Adorned of a brightly wee tree,
The banner of the Green Vegetarian
Inspires Sir Sprout of Broccoli.

Go forth, Sir Sprout, design all green,
Is the bid of the vegetarian plea,
The health of our land is in your hand,
Fare thee well, Sir Sprout of Broccoli.

Broccoli

Vile vertian growth of no delight
Who will not pass beyond the craw,
Whose colour is unnatural bright,
No twig do I detest the more.
Dispatch you! For you will not sate
For hunger I would rather greet,
Your clogging florets gag the pate’
Your presence? It insults the meat!
From whence you came I do not know
You are naught upon the tongue,
A plague on those, your seeds, do sow
O rot in ground, be done!
Vile vertian growth of no delight
Be banished, ever from my sight.
