This is just to say
we have eaten
a few blueberries
from the hedge
instead of dropping them into buckets
to be weighed
Forgive us
we were young
and feeling young
and the blueberries
were the size of grapes
warm and dark blue
from the sun
(Inspired by “This is just to say” by William Carlos Williams, Butler’s Orchard, and blueberries.)

it’s pretty much impossible to not eat them as you go. i’m sure you’re in good company. š

I was afraid I was going to get into trouble and that’s why I didn’t put this link on their FB page. I’m nothing if not a strict rule follower in every area of my life.

A great post, with great pictures.
Do you eat all your blueberries plain? Or did you do some baking?
calliefeyen says
Thanks, Anita. We ate most of them plain, but I made some blueberry muffins as well. I love blueberry muffins.
