Sweet Embrace

Licorice plant in morning's light,
Sweet embrace, pure delight.
In every leaf, in every stem,
Nature's touch, nature's gem.
Through your growth, beauty's spread,
Nature's whispers, gently led.
Soft and bright in dawn's beam,
Licorice's charm, softly seen.
In every garden, in every place,
Nature's wonder, nature's grace.

Licorice's Laughs

A licorice plant so sweet,
Loved to laugh and never retreat.
It'd tickle the bees with its scent,
And laugh, "Oh, what a vent!"
The bees would buzz, "You're quite the jest,
Always making us laugh best!"
With each laugh, joy would bloom,
In the licorice's fragrant room.

Licorice's Leap

A licorice plant decided to jump,
Over the garden wall with a thump.
"Whee!" it cried, flying high,
Surprising the birds nearby.
It landed soft, on the ground,
With a smile all around.
The insects laughed, "What a flight,
Our licorice took delight!"

Sweet Remedy

Amidst the garden where licorice grows,
Licorice whispers, in herb's repose.
Roots that delve in earth's embrace,
Licorice's whispers, in healing's grace.
Fragrance drifts on herbal air,
Licorice plant poems, in garden's care.
Amidst the bees and herbal bloom,
Licorice whispers, in garden's room.
Each leaf that soothes, a healer's tale,
Licorice plant poems, in herb's avail.
In the garden's embrace, their whispers blend,
Licorice's remedy, in garden's mend.
