Today is National Garlic day
Who knew that even exists?
But now that we know, let’s say a few words
For the herb we cannot resist.
It comes from the genus onion,
Allium it’s proper name.
Whether it's raw or cooked, bulb or cloves,
The flavour tastes the same.
For garlic is a Super-herb
With powers beyond it’s size
From healing to aphrodisiac,
And warding off vampires.
Where would we be without its taste
In pastas, on garlic bread?
The only downside seems to be
You’re left with smelly breath!
