Fruit Poems
Juicy
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Succulent lamb chops, so thick,
Small and fantastic.
So tender, little hostess!
Perfect Brussels sprouts,
Pickled red cabbage,
Whipped cream and-
Fruit!
Barefoot Tangerine Moon
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Barefoot in luxuriant grass, luscious, pearl moonlight falling down,
In the golden season of sensual thrills, in the hours without sound,
Underneath the tempting tangerine tree, eating of its fragrant fruit,
With the stars dancing to tomorrow, by enigmatic, invisible routes.
Barefoot in peaceful dreamland, caressed softly by romantic moon,
When the ebony world lies in waiting, for the yellow canary's tune,
Barefoot in tangy tangerines, in the warm, soft, wandering breezes,
In the darkest hours of sleepless night, when it seems time ceases.
A Sunshine Quest
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Sunrise golden hour was fading
Gemmed hummingbirds called on red blooms
Jade new day sparkled in wonder.
Songs from pine trees gushed cascading
the still air heavy with perfumes;
Unrecalled were days of thunder.
A lush garden, blooms invading
for hummingbirds in sweet costumes

Saturday Wild
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Diamonds in the waves
'til by and by sea kissed sky-
Many shades of blue.
Honeyed day of the roses
tangled on pathways of life.
Sweet strawberries wild,
birds screech ere cricket twilight-
Yellow Saturday.
Hoarse frogs on the lily pads

A Memorable Red Fruit Dish
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Hours of hot sun burning thirst
Then fruit I am served
Strawberries raspberries and
Cherries from dreamland
Watermelon bits
Thirst quenching-
Blitz!
Nuances of Pink
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Water lily lake
in hot pink epoch of sun
Coral lilies bob
Fuchsia flight, dusk melodies
Salmon rose sends scents
Moonlight lake gleams, as
skies darken to amaranth
Pink daisy twilight
Gathering sweet raspberries
......
Mango
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Mellow mango, red gold,
Myriad ways to eat,
Marvel of June smoothies,
Munchable with ice cream.
Mesmerizing pink moon
meets orchard of delight,
Mulberry sun comes soon.
Cuties Chilled
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
chicago cuties
tangerine days of summer
when noon redbird sings
cool burst of sunshine
from the fridge of hot august
its dream turned to dust
flowers are flaunting
crisp tomorrows coming soon
......
Fuchsia Fabulous
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Passion flowers climb
in the age of sweet fragrance
Fuchsia passion vines
Still beauty honoring day
upon the soon starlit way
Fuchsia fantastic
heart-stopping surprise mid stride
Rare fruits so tasty
Sun wonder of walled gardens
......
A Garden Tale
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Ripe, juicy fruits and passing blooms,
Grow here in the walled garden wild,
Permeated with pungent floral fumes,
Deep hues where orange sun smiled!
Red strawberries and blueberries too,
Blackberries and two big apple trees,
Buttercups, red roses and iris so blue,
As daisies tango of an evening breeze!
