There should never be moderation with strawberries, just as there should never be strawberries shipped from California to Pennsylvania. Strawberries should be picked under a clear sky, knees aching a little from crawling around, low leaves lifted to find the monstrous beauties hiding in the shadows. A buzz of bees. What you taste, doesn’t count.
You are a poet.

Now I feel guilty for saying strawberry growing was labor-intensive. Fortunately, my son and DIL didn’t listen to me, for they planted strawberries in a large area last year. The plants are presently covered with flowers.
