I hear there's a television show - 
"The Summer I Turned Pretty", and so,

My Cat

I once had a marmalade cat
Who grew so enormously fat
He waddled to the deli
And rolled on his belly
And was given a plum roasted rat

Ever Seen Those Dried Apple Dolls?

Like fresh fruit skin in dry weather
Luscious looks can't hold together
A face takes a hit
From a cigarette lit
And a plum becomes fruit leather

Festive Mother's Day Passage

Mauve, pink, plum graced room
Prayers, jokes, fashion show sailed
Gourmet food, music...
Mellow; poetic treats,
Women's laughter laced sweet.

Little Bill

There once was a  fellow named Bill
Who like cherry, and lime, and plum pills
He ate everyday
So his mother would say
"You eat too much. Bring out the drill."

In-Between Days

Scarlet sun peeks through a slit in darkling storm clouds. Butterflies go home. Sky meets sea at plum border as pink moon trails, in order.

Pretty

precious pearly moonbeams
peachy pink sunset's pause
poufs of blooms in a field
prismatic in hushed pomp
pouty weeping willows
parrots screeching summer
petite girl with a plum

On A Sunday Afternoon in The Garden


bright yellow throats 
trumpeting a sunlit joy -
daffodils

drowsy afternoon -
day dreams scented
with white magnolia

plum tree -
silhouetted in sound
by buzzing bees

Today My 'Echo'
Called Me:
Sugar-Plum!
Relatively Un-Provoked!

I Wasn't Sure She
Liked Me! Even....
 
It Felt Good!

A Memory

A memory of something nice,
At Christmas, we made coconut ice,
And White Christmas squares,
Plum pudding showed the care,
Sixpences planted in the pud,
Gee, those treats tasted good!

There Only the Green Grasses Sway In Relief

The heavy rain fills the pond till overflow,
The winding road links hills high and low.
Flowering of peach and plum trees is brief, 
There only the green grasses sway in relief.
