Is it a pickle?
For this poem I was inspired by the poets E.E. Cummings and Emily Dickinson. Dickinson's poem, A Narrow Fellow in the Grass, inspired me to write a similar mystery poem, but I also wanted to inherit some of Cummings form. This food is one of my favorite foods to eat and whenever I eat it makes me think of warm and happy times.
