Nanna’s damson
jam; Jack’s mulberries baked
to piecrust and ice
cream heaven;
Donnybrook granny
smiths; apricots from
our – we thought –
dead Albany
tree; pears raided on
Colehurst Lane; half
frozen brussel
sprouts gnawed;
gooseberries,
blackberries, sorrel salad,
Torbay asparagus,
mangoes,
avocadoes, all
outdone by the meat pie
we gobbled –
confirmed
vegetarians – because
Malcolm’s mum baked
as a
homecoming
treat
special like,
you know?
for
us
