On a spring afternoon,
I went to the backyard garden,
with a wooden tray
to see, what I could find.
I came back with the following:
potato, tomato,
brinjal, radish pods,
spring onion, carrots,
lettuce, mustard,
chives, Swiss chard,
kale, collard
calendula, nasturtium.
Not much as such,
but for a little family,
this organic produce
is not insignificant either.
I felt rich,
as I chopped the harvests,
for our supper.
I must say,
not all wealth
are money or gold,
sometimes,
it can be the garden bounty,
grown from seeds,
tended with care,
and picked with gratitude.
