Mangelwurzel

Poems 1 Minute

If you MANGEL the WURZEL
That you BEET in the FIELD
And the MAN-GOLD is CHARD
So the FODDER’s not FEED
As CRASSA the ROOT
And the VEGETABLE seem
There’s none so VULGARIS
As the SWOLLEN BETA ROOTs be

So in LARGE WHITE and YELLOW
With a SUGARy RED
And CENTURIES old
It will stand in good stead
The GOLDen CHARD, WURZEL ROOT
OF SCARCITY known
That grand MANGELWURZEL
Is a mouthful renowned

I like to observe, photograph and write about life - mine and all life around me. Relationships are the most important part of my life - whatever depth, form or lack of such they may take. My relationship with Creator God as He declares Himself to be is foundational to every other relationship, thought and observation I have. I am a parent of vision impaired children and would like to write about that; about my life as a Christian; about education; about equity, diversity…who knows. Let's just see where this goes! Welcome to anyone who would like to come along for the ride. Unless I tell you otherwise, the photos are my own. Gina Marie
