the large tree flows out
with its long brances spilling over
it gives a very large shade
cool and even
offered by the large green leaves
the branches bow down
as if humbly offering its fruit
like Eve in the garden of Eden
i gingerly pick at the fruit
i pick only the biggest, blackest succulent fruit
and hold it between my teeth by the nip
then close my eyes as the deep purple juice
gushes into my mouth
ah sweet mulberry fruit!
