Ode to Spinach
In rows of lush, deep green,
spinach thrives in spring’s gleam.
Leaves gather light, tender and mild,
Nature’s own verdant child.
Rich in iron, a hearty fare,
In salads tossed with care.
Garden beds where dew drops cling,
Silent growth as robins sing.
Cooked or raw, on plates it lands,
Nurtured by caring hands.
Vitamins packed within each leaf,
Offering winter’s brief relief.
Spring heralds its crisp return,
In dishes where flavors churn.
Spinach stands, both bold and lean,
A staple serene, unseen.

Green leaves stretch with elegant grace.

Health’s promise, fresh and sure.
Iron clad, with vitamins teamed,

From earth it rises, clean and bright,
A leafy healer in soft daylight.
Eat and thrive, let wellness ring,
In every leaf, spring’s offering.
