Please take a moment to consider yams.
Could there ever exist a nobler food?
A pittance will buy you five kilograms,
Yet a richer tasting snack can scarce be chewed.
A yam is unpretentious and honest:
A complex sauce would only hide its charm.
Just a simple salt- and butter-ing is best,
(Though a judicious pepper sprinkling does no harm).
What feature of yams do I love the most?
I answer you without a hesitation:
The fortifying qualities they boast!
There is no healthier food in all creation.
O yams! You delight me in every way!
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
