Your words paint summer’s reach,
Where Brandywine and cherries pledge,
Sun-warmed promises, earth

Brandywine’s heirloom charm is told,
In rich reds, and greens that unfold,
Cherry tomatoes, bursting with delight,
Sweet and small, in morning’s light.

To grow them well, the tips are few,
Give them sun, and soil that’s new,
Water deep, but not too much to bear,
And stake them high, with careful care.

As days grow long, and nights grow short,
Tomatoes ripen, and their flavors sport,
In salads, sauces, or alone on a plate,
A summer’s joy, that’s simply great.
