Thank you for your warm words of congratulations, Paula. Mulberries grow on trees and sometimes bushes. My mother had a mulberry tree in her backyard. Have a nice weekend. :)

The queen of rainbow imagery strikes again, Evelyn! Such a lovely and serene picture of mulberries at that magic time of dusk between day and night! Your picture reminds me of our loganberry bushes that I tried to get rid of until I realized they were one of my favorite summer berries and coaxed them to grow along the fence! Be wishes for the contest. Blessings my friend!

Great haiku that makes my mouth water. I've been ordered to eat a lot of berries as dessert. Blessings.

Love this one. Juxtaposition is strikingly effective. Last line is beautiful twist to first line. ThkU.
