The nostalgia of lammas fruit picking time where often the ripeness of the fruit provokes thoughts of fulfillment.




These Greengage Autumns by M.A.Meddings

Now is the Greengage picking time 
When summers last  blushes have kissed the plum trees 
And we wander in long lammas orchards 
In barefoot enjoyment hand in hand 
With pannier baskets before us 
Mule laden whicker work  boding the smells of belated autumn 
Hot afternoons beneath the gnarled Damson trees 
Mellow cooled evenings by the stream 
Those  mossy banks  that  dampened  your dress 
Right Through to you panties 
And the enchanting bewitching of me
As you  stripped to nothing 
Doused in a lovers pool you beckoned me in 
And we lovers in this green gage moment 
Touched 
Then held our breaths 
To the promise of  these greengage autmns
And us
