THE POETRY CORNER – Oh Beautiful Tomatoes!


As a writer sometimes prompts help get the creative juices flowing.  I have had many distractions lately  so my writing has been neglected.  Plus I have to admit I am still trying to figure out all the technical things that go with this page.    So when a friend mentioned a prompt on tomatoes, and since we had just planted ours I  quickly penned out this little ditty!  (my garden this year is one big salad!  YUM!

Sometimes even a silly ditty can get you going again!  Now maybe I can get back to my writing!

Oh Beautiful Tomatoes!

Tomatoes of mine,

I can’t wait till it is your time.

Spaghetti sauce, tomato soup and salads galore,

All fares of food I adore.

I love to watch you grow,

You will be delicious that I know,

Your beautiful red brightens my day,

And you are healthy for me in every way.

You bless my table with your presence,

And fill me with your delectable essence.

  1. This made me smile and reminded me of a song I love called, Homegrown Tomatoes. I hope you have a bumper crop!

  2. Love the new look to your blog too! :)

    Like the new look, as well. I harvested herbs today and am busy making essential oils and drying for spices. I’ll blog about it likely over at my blog (www.casondrabrewster.com)
    I may have to come to you to get tomatoes, though. Mine are taking too long to come up…
