A Short Winter’s Tale

I cry red berries
wash them with teardrops
So you can eat them in the morning
with your breakfast
as you listen so intently
to the news on the TV
I want lifetimes
with you…
Without you
I would be
shivering in the snow
tearless
berryless
bereft.
Very creative. π

Beautiful crystal berries!
To eat them right from the bush you have to be aware of your teeth. Lol…

Looking at this image, I can almost feel the icy cold wet drops slipping on my fingertips. Your verse reflects the teardrop appearance perfectly, but before I read it, just looking at the picture alone- my first impression was that each berry seems to be dressed its very own elegant sparkling gown π

I love this! It’s so visual, so beautifully picturesque. The picture genuinely appears to show that the berries are weeping.

These lines (although we don’t have snow π)
“Without you
I would be
shivering in the snow
tearless
berryless
bereft.”
I’m going to interpret it as a mother to her child. She’s in the dorm now as classes started this Monday. She’ll be home during the weekends but you know, I’m all alone in our bed on weekdays and miss her so much. Love this, Ellen! π
