The Cherries Are Ripe & Cherry Tree Haiku















The birds left us a nice crop of cherries this year. We used to net the tree, they flew under—I hung CDs shiny side out to scare them away, they sang to them—I gave up and decided they were bird food, they started eating only half the cherries. Now if I could only get the bunnies to stop eating the peas...

scarlet orbs swaying
gently tug a luscious fruit
spat stones carpeting
