EATING STRAWBERRIES

"Strawberry", oil, by Hall Groat II

He eats strawberries
the way winds find their way,
with leisure and casualness,
or the way a winsome day passes,
with a serenity
he wishes he could keep in a basket,
but he can’t,
just like he can’t keep strawberries
from coming to his mouth
in a slow-moving and sumptuous way.
