Humus blowing in the breeze Growing off of Humus trees Takes me down to bended knees As I feed my Humus needs Humus growing from the ground Blooming Humus all around Humus Bees fly to surround Listen to their sweetest sound Humus scent now fills the air Growing wildly with no care Live among them if you dare Humus fruit is grown to share Can you sing the Humus song If you can just sing along It’s all right, there is no wrong Dancing with the Humus throng Humus blowing in the breeze Growing off of Humus trees Humus growing from the ground Blooming Humus all around Humus scent now fills the air Growing wildly with no care Can you sing the Humus song If you can, just sing along If you can, just sing along _ Alison |

So cute you are! Now the hummus I know is a a paste of chickpeas and tahini, and olive oil etc... whether or not you were singing about this spread it was still adorable We all should be so free to sing out thoughts aloud... Now where's the pita, lets dig in!! |

Of all of my sensibilities, Alison, my nose has always been one of my strong [and long] points. But this captivated me...especially when my last poem was about smells, and this too, is about how the earth revolves with a scent peculiar to its various and sundry areas. LA - where I was born, was all about car exhaust; later, when we moved north, all about piney trees and dark soil... even later, the sea smells coming in on foggy feet.... and more in between, but now... spring currents of jasmine and budding trees, growing grass reaching for its first haircut of the season.... yes, I enjoyed this, very, very much! |
