Your plum blood
carries
bitter sweetness
moister than strawberries
such cherrylike completeness
but its pip
hard as teeth —
a pain so sweet.

a pain so sweet.
Mixing pain and pleasure, the “bitter sweetness”…an excellent short write.
Boy, you had me with that title. Excellent, delicious poem to follow — painful, but yum. Gah, plums are good … ‘specially that juice.
Bittersweet indeed. Hope all is well with you these days Bjorn!

Such luscious words.
This is such luscious writing, Bjorn!💞
a firm and fruity poem – I really liked ” cherrylike completeness” – have never though of them this way before
A feast for the senses!
Pain can sometimes be sweet, as pip.
