HERB

To be grounded in earth's bosom,
Digging deep as Fibrous roots.
Pulsing veins wrapped in black soil,
Nature's alchemy of Flavour and blossom.

I once met a wild sage,
A ginger mint wooed my nostrils.
Floating into a green walled garden,
An orchestra of color and scent.

The herb meets the herbalist,
A tale of man and nature.
The search for nature's elixir,
Tinctures of curled leaves and nectar.

A steeping tea and a stirring,
Fresh plucked leaves laid to rest.
It's thyme for an appointment,
A meeting with nature's nerve therapist.
