THE GRIT AND JOY OF BEING

There is grit and joy in life.

You can eat a peach,

taste the soft silky sweetness of the fruit,

and still catch a flake of pit in your mouth.

I’ll take the unwelcome to get at the heart.

Come and visit the orchard with me;

We’ll shake the trees and give out bushels of joy.
