MIKE’S GREEN THUMB
SAVOR EVERY BIT OF GROWING FLAVOR
Mike had a green thumb, there wasn’t any doubt, but still nothing Mike Dingle ever planted would sprout. He sowed carrots, in a nice, neat row; although, in the end, nothing would grow.
When he planted corn, everything seemed fine to Mike Dingle, but when he planted beets, his thumb started to tingle.
His hands were often dirty, and his thumb was never very clean. When he planted parsnips, his thumb seemed to be stained a bit green.
When he planted potatoes, his thumb started to swell. As he planted the asparagus, it even started to smell.
That’s when it started to feel numb; so, he then went to a doctor, about that green thumb.
Still, it was always true, that nothing he planted ever grew.
Whatever you do, avoid Mike’s green vegetable homemade stew.
EEEEWWWWWWW!
