Blueberry Bits

Out on

our hill,

blueberry

plants

stand


in the three-below-zero cold this wintry morning.

Their

deep

red

buds

lie

dormant


awaiting – next spring's warmth and...




for

their

chance

to

burst

forth –



showing their green, oblong leaves and tiny, bell-shaped blooms


that will

form

beads –

of green,

and

pink –

and which, when mature, will become flavorful berries...


that

we

will

hand-pick

sort,

clean

and...



make into summer breakfast delights. Ah... Blueberry Bits.
