Come The Strawberry Harvest
It was right there on the tip of his tongue
kissing lemon with some little tart
a stone pathway, pushcart town
awaiting strawberry festival
juicy and succulent drips mix in pitcher
cool of ice lavished with suckle
so sweet She is dribbling my chin
this my friend, tis a wonderful lil town
local oxen trot with goods
waves from wares drawing interest
sky blue crockery, clay-fired cups
sown sights, given sounds from local artists
evening combs and lanterns glow
smiles produce glint with laughter
soft is this way for country-fried towns
where hands once again touch, respect, love

You're too good to me Tony!!!
Thankful for You my Friend, we need that good energy Bad Brother.
These little towns, as a teen seemed to bore me to no end.
Then came early 20's and with every age...the magic of them grew to become absolute NEED.
Now in this removal from normalcy and good whether moves in...
Nostalgia rides high.
Thank You Always for You Tony!!!

This is full of happy vibe Soul. Rich and colorful imagery. And the way you painted it with your pen brings the festival to life in my mind. The sounds and sights are alive in this spill. 🌹🙏

Awwww Thank You for visiting Summer, I'm so glad I could convey the energy.
We need such happiness around us at times.
The real convergence of artisans, foods and people --sharing life.

Ahhhhhhh.......the strawberry festival! Such a true, traditional wellcome to the early Summer season! And...O...how Your pen guides your readers, directly into the midst of this one...i can a c t u a l l y taste the ripe strawberry juice.. picture the vendors selling their hand-made crafts/wares...people casually walking--fingers intertwined--as Day gradually gives way to Evening! This is a true celebration of life's simpler enjoyments!

I'm glad to leave off my reading here. This write is so warm and earthy and intimate. The flow of one thought into another is seamlessly harmonious as music. I love the touch of details and how it moves along, painting this full dimensional portrait, emanating a nuance of emotions. Your spirit is beautiful and it flows through your writing. Mine is still too mired in ego methinks, but you can see me trying lol.

You're very kind Daniel as Always!!!
No Bro You've got a firm grip on Your ego, What You present of Yourself connects to warmth...can't fake that shite!!!
Your takeaway from this means much to me and glad it resonated!!!

Sexy and erotic.
Now i wish blueberries had that connotation but strawberries for some reason win every time...maybe because they own that light (heartedness) color of red..not to be confused with (cherry) red.
But the poem is superb, i must say it's got one of the best flow (unflawed) ease dripping from the tongue sweetness.

Appreciate You commenting the flow...
The energy to that was important to me with that one.
The breath and all that.
Yes indeed something about those strawberries and bit of sugar.

"...kissing lemon with some little tart..."
I think that's my favorite line, but it's great all through.
