I Remember
summers in the sixties
heat and humidity rising
blackberries ripe and swollen
hanging heavy on the vine
sweet with nature’s nectar
tempting two boys to pick
enough for mom to make
a cobbler for supper
scenes from a lifetime ago

The lines “blackberries ripe and swollen/ hanging heavy on the vine” are making my mouth water!
It may be a scene from a lifetime ago, but for some it is still current! Good to see you last night, Denis! Thanks.
