Truly remarkable, the gifts He so generously gives us all.
Your words are blended nicely, to form a picture of abundance and nourishment.
Well done, with super word choices....plump, proffer, burbles. Great.

The berry deserves a poem and I love them all. You pay tribute to this life saving fruit and its yummy taste."No chef could profer more" is my favorite line, berries are truly nature's best food.

Lovely bright artwork of the berries about to be picked, they look so real, and you too paint a lovely peaceful scene with your words of the burbling brooke the berries and the sun. Nature at its best. A lovely read.

As always creative excelence in writing. Me would like to be so bold to write of berries in poems untold, yet with the juice that dibbles down my shirt, I can't find a writing worth the weight of gold in dirt. Mike

Hi Brooke,
The first line, 'as berries burst with juice' creates a vivid image that pulls the reader n.
I like the lilting easy tempo to this poem, there is an element of saying grace, woven into the fabric of the words.
..a prime al fresco meal of Nature's fine designing..' is a wonderful phrase.
Great poem.

Makes me hungry! This reads so smoothly, great job on following iambic meter. I like how in the first stanza you describe all that goes in to making each berry, and in the last stanza when you thank the Lord "Who made creation mine."

I enjoyed this poem very much. You say so much with this one. I especially like these lines:
I thank the brook and sun,
I thank the gracious vine,
and then I thank the Lord,
Who made Creation mine...
How lovely this is. Beautiful work with this lovely poem.
