Strawberries

With strawberries, never enough for me: drippy hands, splattered ceiling, slushy the floor. Fido, my best friend, just slid out the door. Perhaps, a strawberry bush, why not a strawberry tree? -- Fido wagged, nay!~ to a Strawberry Flea.

And who doesn't love strawberries!? Secretly I hear bugs really prefers strawberries over carrots, but his contract with Disney forces him to remain silent. Thank you, my friend. Have a great writing weekend.

Hi Sara; thank you. I was thinking I'd like to publish that comment I left you, on your poem, Pixie Dust, about the Indian Medicine Man who spoke to me in a dreamy mist. Let me know if that would be Ok with you, seeing how I used your marvelous poem as a prompt. Have a great evening.

Your "Strawberries" is a creative/fun write. I love Strawberries in or on everything. How about chocolate dipped??? I hate to see them go. Have a fun day writing away.....

Even blueberries welcome strawberries, grandma told -- a tasty mix, of the puree old.

Delicious! Such a treat. When we were younger, my wife use to do all of that -- now we are forced to rely more on our local farmer's market, but most of the folks selling there, follow old-school recipes. Thank you, my friend. Have a blessed weekend.
