How like are you to a Chinese Dumpling?

You are by far, more delicious and sweet.

While dumplings may be warm and quite filling,

You are the one I would prefer to meet.


On a hot day, a dumpling is unfit.

The exotic flavors turn stale and flat.

To eat and sweat the day away I’ll sit.

When I fall aside I’ll make a big SPLAT!


You, by contrast, glisten under the sun.

Tart and revered, you always make me grin.

Simply the berry best for everyone.

Lucious, sweet, and bright! To you will I cling.


Raspberries, you are utterly divine.

To eat you makes me feel truly sublime.
