Gorging Gastropods

For daily salads to embellish,

Garlic-mustard gives rare relish –

Chop the leaves to your delight,

A bounty both for scent and sight!

Perennial and evergreen,

With Dandelion a matching queen –

Such health and wealth of daily salad

Should well inspire a worthy ballad!

And those now gastricked Gastropods?

Why, let us bless the little sods!

* Alliaria petiolata or Jack-by-the-hedge.
