Grapes 

Grapes

Twins, taut and throbbing
That once made my heady wine
Fickle  for suckle

Twins, taut and throbbing
That once made my heady wine
Mellowed and supple

Twins, taut and throbbing
That once made my heady wine
Shriveled  to raisins.

Form: haiku (5-7-5)
11- May -13

For Alfred Vassallo's contest

    I sense a double entendre here...it's those 'shrivelled raisins' in the last one that worry me lol :)

    Good morning ;-) stopping by to enjoy the best of your poetry yet. mmmmm from throbbing and juicy grapes, = to sweet and tiny raisins... Love and all enjoyed all 3 haiku. Jag, thank you for all the nice and lovely visits in the past. After seeing and hearing the things that go on in this world, gives me reason to pray and never take my true poet friends for granted. Enjoy the greatest people and things in life. Have yourself a wonderful and lovely Mother's Day. Lots of Luv & Hugs *LINDA
