Land of Onion Root

There are days that I stalk around the house
looking for likely touristy plants to visit.
Today I returned to the onion, but not the ordinary onion.
I wanted to visit the onion root. I grasped an opportunity
to cut an onion root from an onion that was being prepared
for planting. The cells were ready to do their job.
