Summer Fling

Posted bymarialbergPosted inpoetryTags:, , , ,

This poem is in response to Laura Bloomsbury’s MTB prompt at dVerse Poets Pub to write in the Parallelogram de Crystalline form about “the beauty of a (real or imaginary) lover as compared with and described in images of nature.”

Summer Fling

A love like
A wild bunny gorging
On juicy ripe garden strawberries

Grows brazen
And bold with each red theft
But darts from the gushing sprinkler’s drops

Greedy for
The sweet rush of the fruit
Fleeing any substance that feeds roots

Once all the
Tasty nibbles are gone
He’ll gnaw the leaves if not chased away
