Fickle Fruit

Our tree,
Is pregnant,
With plums.  

The fruit,
Is facetious,
And fickle.  

It teases,
Nearly turning,
Perfect purple.  

Promising,
Ripe flesh,
Tender and sweet.  

Then dropping,
To the sidewalk,
Splitting open wide.    

Moments before,
I deem it,
Ready for picking.

    our ever-bearing mulberry
    hosts a conclave of cardinals,
    unafraid of our shrieking
    attempts to drive them away
