Fresh Green Apples & Blueberries
......Sweet & Tart......
(Or, what to do with too many apples and blueberries)
THIS IS JUST AN EXCERPT FROM THE CONCLUSION OF THE POEM (from Apple Cider by Cathy Smith, Copyright c 2016, Cathy Smith) Or read the entire poem in the free book above.
“A” for Apple.
“B” for Blueberry. I like my slice
a la mode with heavy
whipped cream. making my own whipped cream while I cook,
I slide it along the side of
a heavy crock bowl, taking lazy peeks
into the oven
too soon
just in time
before it got burnt.
Burnt my fingers again.
The lazy whipped cream peaks as I am dreaming about
marshmallow clouds over the
minty lemon sunshine.
The whipped cream
should not be allowed
to turn into butter.
Ginger,
cinnamon,
allspice,
hot apple cider.
