Berry picking!
The Solomon seal sported fruit;
candy coated clusters.
Sweeter still, blueberries
that are riddled red
when they are green.
Rippened to perfection,
we hardly needed a pinch
to pull them from already blushing leaves
of many an aromatic patch.
Our harvest labor lingers
in stained lips and finger tips,
half a gallon zip-loc bag.
