Golden Queens.

In the orchard,
I reach high,
as far as the sky
into the tree of yellow suns -
peaches bigger than my hands.
Wrench them down,
and bite in big,
and the juice drips down my chin.
I wipe with my sleeve,
and turn to run,
my pockets stretched,
smiling, happy, harmless.
Another simple pleasure.
