Grasshopper green becomes radiant red
On guard for competing squirrels
What will become of you?
Salad’s tiara
Pasta’s punch
Frittata’s luscious lick
The tiny little beauty in BLT…
so many ideas
I cannot bear to think of you sentenced to ketchup or diced and trapped in a lightless can.
Sure, I’ll be singing a different tune come January
But now your beauty is singular and will be savored.
Oops, all gone.
I will remember you fondly My little jewel, first bite of summer
Lovely. I wish I could stretch my arms and get some fresh tomatoes. Awesome!
