Crisp,
white flesh,
smooth, red skin
dappled with green.
Succulent juice
drips down her chin as the
sweet taste satisfies hunger
and thirst at the same time. Working
her way around the outside until
nothing remains but the seeds of rebirth.
Thanks and appreciation to Carol, my pastel teacher, for this idea of writing an image.
What great descriptions, and the turn at the end….it stays with us!
