Paul Callus Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

 

Blueberry Hill

With childish excitement we walked up the hill
Inhaling the freshness, experienced the thrill 
Of blueberry picking, first handful to taste,
The rest in our baskets were zealously placed.
That scene is now faded and all that remains
Is wistful nostalgia that flows through the veins.
