Two...You have a great gift. Thanks for sharing it.<br />Two things especially resonate with me in this wonderful poem: "yellow" and "juice dripping from our chins."<br />I'm eating a lot of pears these days, of course. This is the first year I've ever picked them green and ripened them off the tree (as I reckon you're supposed to do with European pears). I look at them in our basement and when they're yellow I eat them, and the juice drips from my chin. When I read this poem my imagination fills in detail to the images you've beautifully suggested. But having biten into plenty of yellow pear and having the juice drip down my chin, those words require no imagination at all. :)Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01640663629610290592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988748434876894094.post-16613179553734687412013-09-28T11:50:59.921-05:002013-09-28T11:50:59.921-05:00Thank you for commenting, Dee.

And your poem once again captures--like a photograph itself--a moment in time with all our senses involved. Peace.Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00612299013780771262noreply@blogger.com
