Ripe

#Napowrimo #Ripe

Maybe it is because of the colour

but i prefer an Orange orange

to a green one

colour develops

over time, as they hang off the arm

of the orange tree

Slowly, the Green Peel

morphs from green to bright orange

as it drinks sunlight

Sending out a call

to all who look after them

the fruit is ready

Peeled, sliced or sugared

best eaten at their ripest

when nice and zesty
