Amazing Valentine

I love strawberries but
I love raspberries more
and blueberries more than
that and lingonberries more
than that and elderberries
more and cranberries more
but my favorite is the grape
which like the tomato and
the pumpkin which I love more
we don’t think of as berries
I suggest we just substitute
the word ‘amazing’ for ‘berries’
how cleverly they plant in us
the seeds embedded in their flesh
that we too be ‘amazing’
