Garlic Poem by Pasquale DiMeola

Garlic

Rating: 5.0


Onion has a little brother
Packs quite a pungent smell
Comparable to no other
With roots that stretch to hell

Odor repulsive to the nose
Bunched like a closed fist
Never mistaken for a rose
First on the flavor list

Every continent uses it
So all the cooks comply
The best of banquets made it fit
No wingless bird can fly.
