Have you ever wondered...
chanced to ask your self
about...
how many natural herbs and spices
people of the earth ...use
if, first we allow
our minds to wander
what we had to do to get here
how many people had to suffer
through the experience
for us to e free
to choose
past the mistakes
even through today
the ones that "science makes"
Now there are elders,
there are books...
medicine men and women
those who have learned
to mix and blend flavors
expertly(the cooks)
mamas and papas
who feed the babies
those men who try to please their ladies
with a gift
so sumptious
they look past the expensive gifts
and taste exotic fruits
not the artificial substitutes...
the real thing...
there are so many we can choose
plant the trees and grow them
if we live where they can
be coaxed to produce the fruits
of our desires
we can even place them in the fire
and make
jellies and jams
cakes and pies
wonderful desserts
what nature provides
even has nutritional
if not medicinal value
put away the substitutes
...while they are fresh and good
in all seasons
enjoy fruits
