Mushrooms have some value
\nAs medicines for they
\nAre wild and in their wildness
\nNutritionally they say
\nThe forest does hold secrets
\nOld plum trees shield them, they
\nThe reishi has longevity
\nAnd they can save the day<\/p>\n
The ancients knew this wisdom
\nThe tonifying soul
\nProtein and carbohydrates
\nExactly in control
\nSuch special fruiting bodies
\nAre anti tumour they
\nPowdered dried and with ginger
\nPerfectly display<\/p>\n
Make them into tea
\n40 minutes to an hour
\nBoiling them and on drinking them
\nTheir broth can have great power
\nTo strengthen and to tonify
\nThis is an illusive soul
\nRarer than you would imagine
\nAnd powerfully in control<\/p>\n
the reishi is a special one
\nExpensive but it does
\nDo wonders with some cancers
\nAnd gives some quite a buzz
\nThe shiitake grows on oak
\ntrees
\nWith its kind of ragged gills
\nCovered in a white flocking
\nBetter than the pills
\nGood for the immune systems
\nAnd bronchial problems too
\n1 or 2 boiled up a while
\nWill be really good for you<\/p>\n
The forest’s ancient wisdom
\nCan be scattered everywhere
\nIt quietly lifts its tiny head
\nThrough the litter it will share
\nThe deeper moisture miracles
\nThe ancient humus rich
\nWithin the deeper layers
\nThat is where to pitch<\/p>\n
Ones Thought about tomorrow
\nFor in the dew fed dark
\nUnsaturated fatty acids are
\nInclined to park
\nTheir messages are rampant
\nTheir synergism too
\nWithin the softening
\nLeaf mold strains
\nThe magic can hold true<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
