Tomato rollicked in liquefied date,
Potato debauched, and melted away,
Lewd stock bubbled up lusting after plate,
While spoon flashed its bowl and held hands with bay.

Sequential potentialed, gala affaired.
Beware! Ensnared! And covered by lover,
Viscous promiscuous; marriage declared,
Potted, besotted; lover, uncover!

Carrots collapse, onions firing heat,
Seething progresses, beguiling senses,
Tomato frolics again to the beat
And, steaming, escapes, no more defenses!

Sighing with scalding, vegetables replete,
Satifies the cook, recipe complete!
