Blueberries

My mouth slowly closed

And exploded with flavor

My heart lifted inside me

As I tried to savor

As I swallowed the juice

And the blueberries too

The taste hung around

Before the next chew

I heard the flop of my feet

As I jogged down the road

Running to pass

The parents as they strode

I picked some more blueberries

And lovingly ate

Snarfing them up

At a speedy rate

Then I straightened up

And again started to run

A price to pay

For the mouthful of fun 

I love blueberries

Whenever they're ripe

They're a great fruit

A glorious type

This hike near Songdal

Brought plenty to do

Like excellent berries

That turn my tongue blue

I have always loved blueberries. Whether they are in pie, on ice cream, in fruit salad or just straight blueberries, I think they are delicious. Having eaten blueberries only twice in the past two years, being able to easily get endless fresh handfuls of them as we walk was a real treat. -JackRabbit

A few weeks ago we went on a hike on an island called Kinn. We ate lots of blueberries then, too.

Our hands were blue from picking so many

Near Sogndal, we picked and ate lots too.

Blueberries were not the only cool things on that hike. This is me on the top of Molden, overlooking one of the arms of the deep and beautiful Sognefjord
