by Thru My Eyes

Last night my hunger was satiated.
I devoured a delicious fruit.
It was soft to the touch but firm… a little fuzzy, if you will.
It was nice and juicy –
And the flesh was so sweet and succulent
Mmm…mmm…mmm
(My mouth waters just thinking about it)
Before taking my first taste, I could tell this was going to be a ripe fruit worth savoring…
          Full of color…
          Supple…
          Ready…
The first taste, the second nibble, the final bite…good to the last drip drop.
The juicy, sweet, sticky nectar tantalized my tongue, danced on my lips, and trickled down my chin.
Some of the delectable liquid ran down my fingers causing a mess that’s all part of the enjoyment of eating such a fruit…
Such a forbidden fruit…
They say a healthy diet consists of 5 servings of fruit…
Are you getting yours?
