" Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad."
Greetings!
My garden is a dream
with ripe plumpy spheres

The sweetness in the plot
Seeds in hemispheres

Like candy, it doles out
As joy in my hands

Explosion on the tongue
My brain, it expands

I've grown my own tomato
And now I know Joy

But only for a moment
The reds are so coy

For all the perfect rounds
There were but a few

Unseemly little fruit
Their taste a bit askew.

Thankful for the favor
Of educated advice

C.L. has the wisdom
To possess the best slice
