in the heart . . .
in the heart
it is
a different
thing
not
what you expected
is
a heart
ever
exactly
what you expect?
lush
and lovely
there is darkness
below
and sometimes –
I believe
it is true –
that
sometimes beauty comes
from
unexpected places
unexpected creatures
people
sometimes

Sometimes they are totally painful and that is the heart of the matter. Thank you for reminding me that inside of the fruit just as a person is often tender This is a lovely poem as usual.

Thank you Robbie. We have 2 fig trees that I’ve grown from cuttings. A purple and a green.
They’re a marvelously photogenic and textured fruit. Love em!

I love them too. Even if they are the result of a poor dead female wasp who is conned.
