“What does happiness mean,” she asked,
Her eyes round with the query
Of the lost
Awaiting to be
Found.
“It is the sun warming your skin,” he said,
His own eyes taking on the mist.
“And the unexpected sweetness
Of cherries on your
Tongue.”

In these hands
Is held the future,
Made of blooms
That kept their oath.
In these hands
Is held the fruit of
Sun’s long labor,
Fed by rain
And nature’s growth.
In these hands
Is cupped the sweet taste
Of confection,
And the marvel
That is bounty
And is beauty
And is both.
