All hail the mighty squash!
Neglected by many
Loved by few
Such a noble vegetable!
There in abundance at my Albert Heijn
The lone survivor of panic-stricken shoppers
You stand defiantly on a shelf
With only wonky-looking peppers and carrots
To keep you company
But I see you, squash.
I recognize your beauty
And your potential.
Together we will make
Wondrous pastas and curries
Soups, salads, and even pies
If my shitty toaster oven
Is feeling merciful
Your future is bright
