In the garden grows a wondrous sight,
Vegetables of every kind in their might.
Carrots orange and long and sweet,
Beans that climb and love the heat.

Cucumbers hiding under their vines,
Peas that pop and burst like mines.
Onions hidden deep in the earth,
Waiting to be discovered with mirth.

These vegetables are full of power,
They make us healthy and give us power.
So let's take a bite and give a cheer,
For vegetables that we hold so dear.
