Premium Member Garlic by the Spoonful

Garlic by the spoonful
each and everyday.
Garlic by the spoonful
by you the others won't play.
Garlic by the spoonful
is heart healthy indeed.
Garlic by the spoonful
is exactly what I need.

Black Garlic

I wish I could eat black garlic
Its so paradoxical
something axiomatic 
eating sweetly caramelised
like an ironic joke
or a thwarted after dinner speech

Premium Member Garlic Heads Crash Halloween Party

the jack-o-lanterns were infuriated.
The ghosts and goblin mad.
garlic heads had crashed the party.
Halloween this year was sad.

How dare they show up again
With sloppy ink on their weird faces.
They cannot just come in here right?
Asked a vampire named Aces.

They are already in, the jacks said,
Feeling angry and upset.
The garlic heads are smelly.
They will stink this place up yet!

The werewolfs tried to get them to leave
By biting off their heads.
Now the smell was worse than ever.
We are leaving said all of the un-deads.

Plantin' Garlic and Potatoes

Plantin' the Garlic and the Potatoes
I can only Hope in the Heirloom Tomatoes

The Daisies push up well past the Day
With Evan Porter sleepin' outside in the Fray

Charlie ' s in a row out at the plant
And Grandma Moses is lookin' for Dry Land

The Ocean washes up the Effervescent Shore
And taxes those who bore

And set out upon the Whistlin Waves
To find her that went beyond the pale

God's holy Ghost in Pale moon shroud
With gatherin' Girls lost and Found

Premium Member Ode To a Garlic Press

Oh, my precious press, you are my
praise-worthy kitchen helper.
You take a clove of fresh garlic, bland, 
and soon it becomes a brilliant burst in
minced, crushed, or creamy paste.
 
My gentle press, you transform 
the wild garlic and tame it in a most 
determined and delightful way.
You impart fine perfumery in the air.
You make a delicious marinade possible.

Your actions provide a tantalizing tongue treat
as a succulent addition to marinating 
lean red or white meat, or veggies.
Oh, were it not for you, dear press, 
my life would be a thankless kitchen
chore, well-intended, but poorly executed.
I applaud your bold audacity!

Leaves Through Doors Not Windows

When my walls I face
Or round my room pace,
My gaze windows meet
And my two eyes greet …

The same as all doors
But stigma do bear;
Better on all fours
In my finest wear
Through all types of doors
And face foes’ teeth and claws
Than through a window
Asking Barking Bingo!
On the spot ‘Burglar’
After valuable, 
Save Room’s Regular
And it thinkable:
One’s door key mislaid;
Dodging The Not-Paid …

Windows then Garlic
Doors, Alcoholic; 
Not of the same smell,
One your doom could spell.

Tender Falls the Rain

Wishing some times
turns sunshine to rain
Tender falls the rain
as i speak your name
don't waste my time
tryna break my heart
you knew the outcome
 from the very start
Love me Tender
Never wanna let me go
sappy love songs
Sh*t thought I let you knoiw
Aint wanting hurt
don't like bruised feelings
got look into who
and what I'm dealing with
Tender falls the rain
as i speak your name
tell you this means to me
Love and tender kiss
you sopossa be my Missus
Tell me what this is
since this involvest me
standing behind the curtain
rehersting your favorite script.
Tender falls the rain
siggin on suttlease
swaggin like you the mistress
betta get wiff me
love don't need much
collabration
Gal just do your thang
I need yo blessed assurance
Ask you let me have my way
Tender falls the rain
Baby love me Tender
Speak it when you speak
my name
Baby what's for dinner
we've had our hard times
you and i
Throught the good and bad time
some how
we got by
Now that your here with me
Baby let's stay together
say you love so
that you'll leave me never
tender Falls the rain
as I speak your name

Premium Member Spaghetti and Garlic Bread

Steaming spaghetti and garlic bread.
      On a warmed red-checkered plate.
               With aromatic, hot, garlic bread.
For my epicurean tastes is just fine and dandy!
       Would be nice though, if served by a handsome,
                 Italian waiter.
 ~~~~I call that, some ravishing eye candy~~~~

Premium Member Rosemary Garlic Lamb Chops

Succulent juicy lamb chops
    makes the mouth water.
The garlic and herbs enhance
       the taste---delicious!
    Served with veggies and...
               potatoes,
                  Yum!

Coed Garnllwyd Walk, Llancarfan

A glance from the field displays a line of green,
Waving back and forth, for as far as can be seen,
A chosen path the gentle scrub has allowed through,
Human interaction has created steps too,
In the distance.
Meadow's dancing to the swift gentle breeze,
Flower Buds loving every minute, after the freeze,
The river winding its way, repeating the circle,
As trees gaze down.
Ancient buildings wrecked with still an aura of life,
The river rerouted to make way for modern strife.
Gnarled trees still lay strong where they fell,
Old sprouting buds must have a story to tell!
While wild garlic smells all around,
Like a historical museum on this ancient ground.

A Purple Garlic Kiss

My name is Ethel Mary 
And I have to tell you this
I hate it when Aunt Geri
gives a purple garlic kiss!
I hate it when my bubblegum
EXPLODES all over my face!
I hate it when I’m last
in the stupid relay race!
I hate it when I laugh
and milk goes out my nose!
I hate it when my new shoes 
put a blister on my toes!
I hate it when my Dad
has to work on Saturday!
I hate it when it rains
and I can’t go out and play! 
But I think what I hate most,
and I know I told you this,
but I hate it when Aunt Geri
gives that purple garlic kiss!

Premium Member Garlic Gook

It was 4:00am when I woke up 
To go fishing for some trout 
I packed my gear and tied some fly's 
before I headed out
 
When I got down to the river 
About a quarter after six 
All by myself, a perfect time 
To use my fishing tricks
 
I reached inside my vest 
And grabbed a little weight 
And I stuck it on my fishing line 
Twelve inches from my bait
 
Then I took a piece of orange thread 
And I tied it to my hook 
Then I scented it with my antidote 
Of garlic flavored gook
 
I caught a lot of fish today 
I must have caught about fifty 
So now you know my secret bait 
Use garlic gook, it's nifty!
