Cold Slaw

Okay, so it's kale. I know, I know, but to me it's cabbage, 

a gas producing, fibrous staple used by landscape

gardeners everywhere to fill space until spring.

Finally though, the downtown cabbage patches

became attractive as they held snow among their leaves. 

The snow sparkled like crystal in the sunlight,

making jewels of the common cabbage. 

Overnight the cabbages had been turned into 

a jewelry display -- rows of sparkling brooches

laid in a row -- uncommon cabbage.
