A Slice of Kansas... (or as the vegetable turns)

In the garden I was born,
On a sunny springtime morn,
Through the summer I matured,
Kansas sun and wind endured,
I made it to September,
And the best that I remember,
It was on a Saturday,
When, alas, was stole away,
Ripped right of the stem,
By that evil Auntie Em,
To the kitchen I was taken,
From the garden was forsaken,
I was frightened to the core,
What did Auntie have in store?
OH MY GAWD! THAT’S BOILING WATER,
Things were getting much, much hotter,
Then was placed inside a jar,
With some spices, how bizarre,
I was in a pickle then,
Nope, I was a pickle then.
On a burger on a bun,
It really was not fun,
When Auntie had her fill,
Of a Kansas crispy dill.
