Thoroughly Poetic Thursday #137

  Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy 

Here is today's photo.  


When I was a child, (in the stone ages) broccoli was only sold in a box. It was as hard as a rock*

Mama cooked it until it was NOT*.

She cooked it and cooked it 'til it was no longer green

It was so mushy it made me want to scream

I expect I made this very same face.

Oh how happy I was to finally see it freshly displayed

in the produce case.  I learned to steam it 

to perfection and color to please my  eyes and taste.
