Poetry for Herbs and Less Salt Day
"Where kitchen herbs whisper good health."
πΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏ
Coriander leaves
Seasoning with flavoured care
Soulful spice lights tongue.
πΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏ
Sprigs of thyme will shine
Graces food in hot oven
Beef teasing the tongue.
πΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏ
Rosemary and pork
Flavoured pairing on a plate
Scent laces the air.
πΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏ
Nutmeg and pumpkin
Soulful pair, singing as one
Sweetens the palate.
πΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏ
Salt then beats retreat
Lurking meek in the shadows
But still sparks each bite.
πΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏπΏπ±ππΏππΏππ±πΏ
