The Sad Demise of the Vegetables<br />
Nicole Braganza<br />
I lost my head, the lettuce said<br />
A bounteous mop of green,<br />
And someone even spilled<br />
An agitated string of beans,<br />
Then Potato lost an eye<br />
And Corn Cob lost an ear,<br />
A pink and sentimental onion<br />
Shed a lonesome tear.<br />
A mushy heart of artichoke,<br />
Welled up with such compassion,<br />
A hand of bananas was chopped off<br />
In such a ruthless fashion,<br />
No rib of celery was spared,<br />
No neck of squash released,<br />
And sad to say, this was the way<br />
The vegetables deceased.<br />
A Household Name<br />
Gord Braun<br />
there was a certain Turkish king<br />
who liked his spices hot<br />
among them was a condiment<br />
he really liked a lot<br />
<strong>for</strong> this he earned a moniker<br />
of great and lasting fame<br />
and that's how sultan pepper<br />
got to be a household name<br />
