Haiku My Heart Friday, Blackberry Preserves


How sweet the labor
Of picking and preserving
Summer in a jar.



For more Haiku My Heart Friday go to Recurda mi Corazon to see what our sweet Rebecca has going on.
Join us. Write down the bone-poem of a picture, give it to us.
It is strangely satisfying.

    Wowza. The fruit in the jar, the poem, the call to haiku.

    I will have to take a rain check on the haiku but maybe next time. Those preserves look awesome. Great work Ms. Moon. Have yourself a great weekend.

    perfect, this summer in a jar.
    this skimming down....
    letting go.

    it is strangely satisfying....
    this call to simplicity.
    these bare bones.

    thank you for a taste of your sweet beauty.

    That blackberry jam calls across the miles. I'll dream about it tonight.

    And perfect words to go with it.

    I'm not at all a haiku fan. Hated having to write them in school. Too ethereal, never made sense to me.

    But yours, I like. Of course. They're fleshy and attainable and REAL.

    damn those preserves look good
