GARDEN PARTAY!!! Edward Iacona
I know that names of products May often be ostentatious But I never thought that packs of seeds Could also be so salacious.
Varieties mentioned here are real And this is what I think... Many gardeners and farmers Must enjoy an earthy wink.... To make my point I'll put these names In quotes or maybe in italic. And lay aside the obvious view that Some veggies look quite phallic.
There is no doubt that corn Is known to be singularly nutritious But what can one say about a corn That is named "Bi-Licious".
A common trait I'd l think I'd share From Puberty to my coffin Is a link to a certain corn Called "Early and Often".
No homophobia amongst the stalks Or none that I have seen When one on considers there are types Called "Ruby" and "Silver Queen".
There is an egotistical cucumber Whose statistics really rate... I shall envy it's bragging rights To being a "Straight Eight"
Virile thoughts of cucumbers May easily coincide. When human males at morning May deal with some "Early Pride"
There is a carrot called "Big Top" But a cliche I must repeat... That size is not a factor so There's another called "Short and Sweet"
Male prowess claims that men Should try to please and perhaps outlast her. So their cucumber of choice should be The one that's called "Bushmaster".
When Popeye eats his spinach his Rescues of Olive Oyl are less demanding' But, if he really wants to impress her There is a type called "Long Standing"
Ah! the popular pumpkin Famed for Halloween and pie But the name "Jack O' Lantern" May be more than meets the eye.
The apostrophe after the O Stands for "of" I know that's true But considering the names I've seen Do they mean one "f" or two?
