Notes About The Poem

Does An Orange Get Sweeter In the Bowl

The navel oranges like my love looked divine

I purchased some perfect fruit to be mine

Easy peel like his clothes stirring a scent so sweet

The lusciousness such a tasty treat

Divided into segments, plop, tart touched my soul

Question haunts does an orange get sweeter in the bowl?

I do love oranges and they do tend to get sweeter sitting in the bowl but I like them cold so keep them in the fridge. Nicely done. God Bless, JB
