I always start out with a kettle <br />A good sized pan for me <br />A cutting board and knife I need <br />I chop very carefully <br /> <br />I have a pile of veggies <br />My garden’s last embrace <br />Sweet and oh, so flavorful <br />Will be the final taste <br /> <br />Onions caramelized and sweet <br />Carrots crisp and nice <br />My herbs from the garden too <br />To add a little spice <br /> <br />Garlic adds its special flavor <br />Chopping celery I hear the crunch <br />I like it in fairly small pieces <br />So delicious too to munch <br /> <br />Tomatoes from my garden now <br />In the oven first to roast <br />That adds a special kind of taste <br />That I so love the most <br /> <br />Perhaps I add a chicken breast <br />And chicken stock as well <br />I put the lid on tightly now <br />So my soup can start to swell <br /> <br />Ah yes, the fragrance of my soup <br />Is such a joy to me <br />Autumn is the time to enjoy <br />My soup so deliciously!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/autumn-soup/
