Oh no, what to do with messy fingers
from delighting in summer ripe cherries?
No napkin?
Use a sketch book page
paint lava trails with cherry juice
that turn to ash as they flow
feeding flowers with rich volcanic soil

Yes, some of the lava was fingerpainted with cherry juice. Yum!
how cool!

I forgot about the cherries. Food “juice” sometimes gives you different colors than you expect (e.g., coffee is much more yellow than I anticipated & it’s hard to make it look dark). Lovely work & glad the expected color emerged.

I wasn’t sure what I expected but since you read that moving poem about volcanic ash nurturing flowers – and my fingers were juicy red, I thought I would try it. It looked pretty good so I ate more cherries. 🙂

How creative. Those cherries are so good though, so worth the inconvenience

Fingerpainting is always fun, especially when you get to eat cherries for the ‘paint’. Thanks for dropping by, VJ.

A lot of my printed poems end up with wine stains for some reason.
