   Good question! Interesting thing to ponder…

   meanwhile, our first bowserino loved blackberries, I would hold a branch out, and she’d pick berries off with a nimble bite.

     aww–I can see that happening–I had a border collie who loved tomatoes, and had to guard my garden from her, and limit her to one or two fruit a day, so the rest of us got some!

   Wonderful poem – probing question, deep syntax and more than one level of meaning! 🙂
