Sharing the fruits of my plum tree with the crows
Is teaching me a lot about timing, and greed.
They’ve had access to this tree for years,
But it’s only my first harvest:
What right have I
To resent their relentless plundering?
But now the plums are finally ripe,
I’ll pick what I can reach, and share with friends.
With plums, as in life, there’s no need to hoard
All the bounty for ourselves...
