Pear-motif poems

From my January Gimcracks, January 30, 2003,

drizzly morning

a lone yellow pear

in the blackness

~~PL

From Dim Sum, 2005/II, p. 23:

apple orchard--

could I have

the pear tree

~~Yu Chang

From day breaks, February 20, 2000:

pear tree

white explosion on

the blue day

~~(the late) Dion O'Donnol

LOVE POEM II

I just finished breakfast

--cheese omelet

with picante sauce,

coffee, milk,

and a ripe

(the best kind)

pear.

I thought of you

and your buckets

of blown-off-the-tree

pears,

not to mention those

that resisted the wind.

It does not take much

to call you to mind--

maybe nothing at all--

but the pear served

admirably.

I hope you harvested

as much good from them

as I did.
