ode to an avocado
by Catherine Wright TaylorWondrous fruit of black and green
Need only be peeled for its wealth to be seen.
A sprinkle of pepper and salt can suffice
But additions of lemon and onion are nice.
Mashed in a bowl, seasoned just right
Delicious companion for chips late at night.
Ah! what joy and pleasure akin
When we take the time to look under the skin.

...because it's the food of the gods!
I love it. The first time or two trying avocado as a kid I didn't like it too much. Can't get enough of it now.
