[Intro]
Dawn spills over the rows, the soil hums in light,
A zucchini whispers secrets tucked from sight.
[Verse 1]
I tune my rake to the vegetable's odd beat,
It clears its throat from the compost, sly and sweet.
"Speak, green oracle," I grin and coax,
Tell me the trick to a first-prize boast.
[Chorus]
Neighbor, just believe it's talking back,
The zucchini chats while I stay on track.
Leaves whisper clues in the morning light,
If we win, you and I will celebrate.
[Verse 2]
I train with pep talks and conspiratorial plots,
Water on schedule, even with quirky thoughts.
It critiques my mulch and my bragging rights,
Then signs off with a verdant, glossy bite.
[Chorus]
Neighbor, just believe it's talking back,
The zucchini chats while I stay on track.
Leaves whisper clues in the morning light,
If we win, you and I will celebrate.
[Bridge]
Under porch-light glow, the stalk takes the stage,
It puffs up pride like a coach of green sage.
It points at the rivals with a leaf-tipped cue,
I bow to the vine—this bizarre mentor is true.
[Chorus]
Neighbor, just believe it's talking back,
The zucchini chats while I stay on track.
Leaves whisper clues in the morning light,
If we win, you and I will celebrate.
[Outro]
Thanks to the garden, the gossip and sun,
Tomorrow we'll harvest stories—two hearts won.
