AMAZING MAIZE


Kernels of sweet gold,and blades so green!


King of the grasses you always been!


Oh! Amazing maize! How mighty you seem!


Plains and mountains, you've spread your seed


Taming the farmer, to help you breed

                                                              
Forming bread, milk and eggs; and miserable meat


You feed my flesh, with all I eat


From plastics and fuel; to candy and clothes


You build them all,  from  thin air!


Oh amazing maze !!


Domesticator of  the human race! 


How splendid  is thy kernelled face !
