They started with seedlings:
Tomatoes, onions, basil, oregano
As these were growing
They placed two hula hoops
In the sunniest spot on the raised bed
And drew lines for each sprout
They watered and weeded and waited
For the harvest
So they could savor a pizza
Crafted with their labor
Produce from their garden
That’s such a cool idea! I’d never seen that before, and the poem describes it sweetly and clearly. The use of alliteration in “they watered and weeded and waited” adds a gentle rhythm to the line that I enjoyed. Thanks for sharing this!
