Here's a poem I sing whenever I feel good. It just puts a bunch of veggies in 
alphabetical order. Whenever I have nothing else to say, I sing this. Whenever 
I know nothing else to write, I write this.
Asparagus, Brocoli, Cauliflower
from the old musical "Plain & Fancy"


Asparagus, Brocoli, Cauliflower,
Dandelion greens and escarole,
fennel and grapes and honeydew melon
and iceberg lettuce from the salad bowl

Juniper, kale and lovely lentils
mushrooms, nutmeg, okra, peas,
quinces, rutabagas, squash, tomatoes,
uuuunions sweet like strawberries

vinegar, also watermelon, 
x-plants planted all in rows,
yams and zzzpinach, zzaurkraut, zucchini.
In Pennsylvania anything grows.
