Why is there a sprig

of lemon thyme

in y' pocket,

- dead sorry

but I just had to ask

?




Most folk keep their keys there

& possibly a wand

or wallet

- but honestly

I've never seen that.

Well,

 it's there to ward off evil

& un-thyme minded people

- as it disperses 'erbalness

wherever we go.




Plus it may well come in handy

when later cornered

down a (dark) back alley

- & aye I could say more like

but that's all you need to know
