randon ditty

We've been
ending our nights
in paper cups
filled with
strawberry wine

I've spent
all summer
trying to pick
a cherry
from your bush

trying to avoid
the pricks and pokes
nature seems
destined
to put in my way

I just know
it'll be that much sweeter
for the struggle
when I do.


*****
and yes cherries do grow on bushes, nanking bushes to be exact. heh.
