And your flavor is the sweetest, juiciest,

root faeries going wild are sniffing with hypersensitive noses today
seeking out the curliest, most delicious, juiciest vines, along the way.
consuming grasses and roots other animals cannot fathom eating for fun.

May God hear my prayer
That I achieve my goals today
I buff up my chest
In hope you find me the juiciest

hens roost on silver silk
poke-a-dot eggs neath mom

charmer the hooded snake
swings around crowds at night
pops from a basket brown
hemp woven strong and tight...

Grandma had taught him too, leaving her recipe as family legacy.
It was only one of many gifts she left her talented grandchildren....
