Fruit & Veggie One-Liners



Peas: nubile bumps nudging toward adolescence, how modest your nightgown, how tightly zipped, how crisply closed, how green.


Broccoli: haven for so many birds; I claim you off-limits, official Avian Reserve.


Cherry: impaled upon your own crescent splinter, you swell to bursting.


Cilantro: verdant lace dancing across the crimson bosom of Tomato, you quiver with the soul of Salsa.


Carrot: slim stiletto of beta carotene, you dart into rich dark earth with grim determination.

You have taken these words and created amazing images. I think I would have loved this assignment. I can see my plant stakes in the garden all holding poems now!
