Fascinating poem. I like it a lot. Never heard of a sugarberry tree before, but I do like sugar, berries, and trees! Good work.

Thanks again. I am well past my prime so don't worry. I once said my poems are like my children, I love all of them but some are better than others. I like this particular poem a lot because it based on memories and experiences.
