Ripe, sometimes small
Also good for vitamin C
Nothing can taste the same
Given its flavour and healing quality's
Everyone should have an orange a day...

Premium Member Nothing Like Store Bought
succulent citrus
fruity and wet
dripping down my chin
I know I am in Georgia
When I can pick my own peach
Off of a tree in grandma's yard
heavenly nectar, loving the taste
nothing like store-bought...

Element of Air
lounging on the bench
tender gust envelopes me-
a scent minty as citrus

its wing releases
soft cuddle thinning away-
to blow last huffs of fall's  flair
