Guinep Season

Summary:

I love when guineps are in season.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

at long last, it is guinep season
street vendors pester me to buy them, like I need a reason

to buy a bunch of the delicious, grape-like fruits
they are a lovely treat I've enjoyed since my roots

I just crack open the firm green skin
To get at the sweet flesh within

after suckling, all that's left is the seed
then I finish the whole bunch, yet I still have the need

To buy another bunch, since they're only around once a year
which is why I look forward to when guinep season is here.

Notes:

I loooove guineps. I like to think of them as little candies Mother Nature made just for us humans.

I appreciate you for reading!
