I loved hearing my poetry buddy Ron Bremner read this wonderful poem of his:
Maraschino Cherries
Ron Bremner
Maraschino cherries hold secrets in their souls,
hiding from the shadows, basking in the gold
of sun that shines so brightly and won’t let them grow old
their taste a sweet surprise to those who can unfold
their hot and sultry mystery that’s tangy to the tongue
with long-forgotten flavor that keeps forever young.
