Oh Happy and Humble tomato!
In your youth you joined the ranks
of the horticultural army
labouring on your leaves
in the summer sun
Rewards a plenty
as the best recruits are picked
for display in a culinary tattoo
in a Salad or Pasta dish
Numbers in your ranks depleted
but new recruits appear
ready for a new assault
at the summers blue sky
