There is beauty in every line of this haiku, but I especially liked the second line. Nice to think that even a cherry can be someone's 'sweetheart,' Lol. :D

Nice, that's an apt name, summertime candy. They caught my eye in the grocery isle - why didn't I get them? and I thought about making a pie out of them. Hmm, next time I think I'll buy them - you only live once!

Hi David! I, too, was thinking about the cherries I passed up at the store. Love cherry pie! We have two cherry trees, one tart one sweet! This year we have two cherries. Looks like I’ll be buying cherries this year! And, yes, you only live once. Looks like cherry pie will be on the menu soon. Thank you for your delicious feedback! Blessings - especially on your cherry pie!!
