Poem: Yakima Fruit Market in Winter/ Quote: Eugene O'Neill

Yakima Fruit Market in Winter

Funny fruit people adorn
articulated doors as vacancy
erupts all around.
The Christmas trees are gone-
a carpet of needles shifts
above the ground.
Steel poles holding nothing.
they are the last structures
to go before March.


Eugene O'Neill said, "One should either be sad or joyful. Contentment is a warm sty for eaters and sleepers." And he said, "There is no present or future, only the past, happening over and over again, now."

Great poem, and what a nice perspective on the fruit market in winter. It does feel empty doesn't it?

We've started a blog for the fruit market. Feel free to come on over and share a poem whenever you like! http://www.freshpickednews.blogspot.com/

A new favorite quote by E.B. White: "Every morning I wake up torn between desire to save the world and savoring it. This makes it hard to plan the day. But if we forget to savor the world, what possible reason do we have for saving it? In a way, savoring must come first..." (A longtime shopper at Y.F. --all the generations.)
