Vegetable Soup

A piece of Acetate Art by the Author – Garden

Go into your garden,

and dig a few holes.

Drop a tomato plant, an onion bulb

Some beans and some greens,

into some lush fertile ground

warm in the bright sunshine

and water (Rain does best, but a watering can will do)

Add fertiliser if you need to.

Then when at their peak

pick the fruits of your labour

and after washing, pop them in a pan

The hardy veg take longer to cook – so put them in first

cook them down with some salt and pepper – and perhaps – a little oil

liquidise and serve

with fresh oven baked bread

in a stoneware bowl

Sit down, and enjoy
