It's nice to see the onion taking root
iambically, in couplets, foot by foot.
The pungent tale of onion goes to the core.
It seems there is no end to onion law
and I commend your efforts - Onion Singers -
Your personal encounters with those stingers
shows just how far the onion is ahead
in literature, philosophy and in bed.
Joe holds the onion firmly in his fingers -
a holy grail of smell, the spirit lingers
and racy Zita barbeques opinions
and proves she knows a thing or two of onions.
but Carl, forever the rebel promotes the grape
and puts the onion in a villain's cape,
yet still the song singeth merrily along.
We know that wine doth lubricate a song.
Now having lunched and peeled some onion layers
let us see who are sprinters, who will be stayers
with onion prosidy in racy meters.
Where's those Henrys, Swagmans, Slaters, Peters?
Those flashy jockeys are elsewhere on the run
but The Onion Cup is waiting to be won.
.....................
So off on a canter as the bard has once told
the onion came down like a wolf on the fold....
