To Sis Cat,
A great crowd pleaser for the fruit bowl.
The deep, bright red fruit has very good nutrient value in them.
Nice image and well described.

Beautiful 5/7/5 poem. I fully understand - I have been known to eat my first and even my second basket of cherries before I get home. I used to have a cherry tree of my own and that was pure delight.

Good luck in the contest.

Blessings
Janet

    Janet, thanks for your review and contest well wishes. Fortunate for me, by the time I arrived home I not only had my cherries, but I also had my poem I wrote about them.

What a great comparison, cherries and gemstones. An amazing photo - looks good enough to eat. They aren't in season here just yet, but I will be buying them as soon as they are.
Great job all round. Thanks, Carol

This poem and image are esthetically pleasing, in fact, they have made me want to run to the store and buy some cherries. What a great topic to have chosen and what a great way to immortalize the first cherries of the season.

I love the way you compared the fruits to gemstones, adding value to their beauty and (I assume) taste.

    Yes, Rhonda, many reviewers told me they wanted to run to the farmer's market or the store for cherries--the gem of fruits. I did not choose this topic. It chose me when I stepped into the farmer's market yesterday and saw the first cherries of the season. I composed this poem in my head before I ate the first one. Thanks for your review.

    That's when you know its good! That and the fact that you are a true poet. My father used to write poetry on scraps of paper as things came to him.

    Oh, and I'm so getting cherries tomorrow!

Hi Sis cat
Loved this! for a Haiku 5-7-5 it is very well crafted and flows really well. Loved the visuals of the words and they matched the picture perfectly. They look good enough to eat ! Very well done :-)

That lovely photo of a bowl full of cherries looked scrumptious, Sis Cat. But I could have just as easily visualized them in my mind based upon the stunning imagery you've created in this poem.

Wonderfully done...~Dean

    Yes, yes, yes! Dean, here for once I wrote a 5-7-5 that can stand on its own without the picture because my imagery is spot on. Thanks for your review.
