Ode to Basil

Oh, fragrant basil, herb divine,
With spicy notes and touch of thyme,
You calm the storm, you ease the mind,
A tranquil balm for humankind.

In a diffuser, your essence flows,
Promoting focus as knowledge grows.
While studying or reading through the night,
You sharpen thoughts and bring delight.

In kitchens, you take center stage,
A single drop on the culinary page,
Transforming dishes, fresh and bright,
A taste of gardens in every bite.

For weary souls, you’re a tender balm,
With wintergreen, you restore the calm.
A massage of oils, the stress will cease,
Neck to shoulders, you bring sweet peace.

During cycles, you lend your grace,
A soothing touch, a warm embrace.
Internally taken, a drop will do,
To steady and comfort the body anew.

Oh, basil, friend of both heart and plate,
A gift from nature, so simple, so great.
In every drop, a story untold,
Of wellness, flavor, and courage bold.
