“Strawberry Tea”
We planted them so long ago,
When days were short of light,
We watched until the flowers grew
With petals small & white,
We saw, with joy, the tiny fruits
Begin to plump & swell,
And as they flushed to brilliant red,
We breathed their luscious smell
And now, with dish and spoons we come,
And clotted cream to suit,
To raise a toast to strawberries,
The summer's sweetest fruit.
