Seasons & Seasoning

Pepper’s hot.

Salt is not.

Agrimony can be bitter.

Turmeric, too,

(like witch’s brew)

seasons little critters.

Fennel’s cool

(like skipping school)

while Safron makes life grander.

The depth of food

turns inside-out

with Thyme & Coriander.

Anise, Fennel, & Nigella

fruits up breads

& veggies.

Turning bland

“vanilla food “

into something edgy.

Cumin, Mustard,

Poppy Seeds,

adds an air of murky.

Dash a bit

(here & there)

on fish & beef & turkey.

Pepper’s hot.

Salt is not.

Garlic lacks good discipline.

Honey’s sweet.

(It can’t be beat.)

But who can turn down Cinnamon?
