Vegetables,

Vegetables, oh green and growing things

Roots and leaves, stems and strings

You are the foundation of a healthy plate

Filled with nutrients, to nourish and satiate

Carrots and cabbage, lettuce and peas

Spinach and kale, so full of ease

Each with its own unique flavor and taste

You are nature's gift, not a waste

From the soil to the dinner table

Vegetables of every kind, so stable

You are the backbone of a balanced diet

Providing health and vitality, never to quit

Vegetables, oh green and growing things

You are the essence of life, forever green

Fulfilling and nourishing, in every bite

You are the foundation of a healthy life.
