“Every beauty which
is seen here by
persons of perception
resembles more
than anything else
that celestial source
from which we all are come.”

to be a raspberry or not
identified by the purple spot
how did it become the Bronx cheer
fans who consumed one to many a beer
the bush, however, is a thorny problem
bees and butterflies love the blossom
one plant gives birth to a hundred suckers
this is only good if your name is Smuckers
at the local diner berries are the favorite pie
at home, dad’s favorite was the infamous shoofly
topped with ice cream, they are berrie berrie good
berries in a smoothie is well understood
wild berries were lunch for the wandering child
delightful innocence, and God smiled
that pollution won’t spoil the berries we pray
you, yourself, please have a berry good day

fall waits quietly
warm earth helps summer linger
daylight becomes less

Poem:

wafting aromas Saturdays baking
taste of heaven in the making
natures best mixed with love
taught by angels from above
apple, peach, cherry pie
the best molasses makes shoofly
scones, eclairs, turnovers and strudels
oh me, oh my, I could eat oodles
remembering things that were home made
just down the street by the crazy old maid
sitting, cooling on the open window sill
shes watching us with looks that could kill
one for each, she would finally say
happiness to savor for the rest of the day
