Ode to an Onion


Please someone help me....LOL. There was an episode of Popeye from the 60's in which Olive and Brutus became beatniks and go to a coffee house. While there, Brutus reads a poem called "Ode to an Onion." Does ANYONE out there remember the words to this poem?

reply

Oh onion, onion, you are the gonest
So green, yet so honest
Oh onion, onion, like, I dig you the mostest
Oh green and lovely hostess
Hip, hip, hip and crazy daisy
Like, your breath just leaves me hazy
Oh brave and noble onion
Green stem and creamy bunion
Your personality is halion(?)
Live, grow, breathe oh gracious scallion

Pablo Neruda he ain't.
