Gift from Vancouver for someone’s 18th birthday:)
Beautiful purple box his brother brings over to share –
No Sugar diet on temporary hold as life’s too short? If you must monitor sugar intake then good news is –
Purdys have NO SUGAR versions.
When the blackberries hang
swollen in the woods, in the brambles
nobody owns, I spendall day among the high
branches, reaching
my ripped arms, thinkingof nothing, cramming
the black honey of summer
into my mouth; all day my bodyaccepts what it is. In the dark
creeks that run by there is
this thick paw of my life darting amongthe black bells, the leaves; there is
this happy tongue.
– A poem by Mary Oliver
It’s hard to find those blackberries for the very berry plate – Blackberries !
Should we go berry picking into the woods?
