Beneath the moon in a grandmother’s hand,
grew a small white lantern from ancient land.
Rooted in stories, in soil and prayer,
a keeper of wisdom carried through air.
Hung by the doorway, tucked near the flame,
our ancestors whispered and called it by name.
A guardian bulb with a silver-white glow,
warding the shadows that wandered too close.
It flavored the soup and strengthened the weak,
brought warmth to the weary and color to cheeks.
A healer in kitchens long before fame,
offering comfort without seeking a name.
Each clove like a secret the old ones knew,
that earth keeps her medicine hidden from view.
Wrapped in white paper like pages untold,
holding small miracles folded in gold.
So here’s to the garlic, humble and bright,
born from the darkness yet carrying light.
A charm for the spirit, a gift from above,
an ancestral blessing seasoned with love.
JAM🙏🏻❤️🔥Love&Light
