Jedediah Smith 
Very confident and original write, I thought Jedediah – I shall be back for more…
Thanks very much!
This is such a fresh perspective on use of language and imagery in a poem .. I love the intricate details here especially; “Harvesting is an art, for the melon will now burst at the lightest touch.” You inspire me! ❤️
Very, very kind words. I tend to get overly ornate, and this was a way for me to strip the language down to plain speech.
You had me until the cloud of fruit flies and it explodes if you touch it. Isn’t there a different way without those two things? Vivid writing, Jedediah!
I only made it once, so I had to stick with that experience. Thanks for reading!
🙂 Ah! You are welcome.
What a process Jed! Whew!! Rubbing alcohol, Clorox, and fruit flies — think I’ll pass… 🙂
Wise choice. Thanks for reading!
I like the last two lines about fermentation in solitude.
Thanks Frank
What an interesting wine process. I so enjoyed this one. Thanks for sharing.
And thank you for hosting
Living alone has its own challenges (and secrets) (K)
Absolutely. Thanks for reading!
