Mom & Mom-
Mom Suzán
Immaculately
tended
last-minute
tasks tackled
reviewing plans
as a mix of rare
large expanses
in roughly
half-mile spans
of under-
performing plants
newly tilled
whipping in the wind
becoming hard to pick
by gloved fingertips
without strict consistency
nearly extinct
curiosities
of public breeding
isolated in museums
of heirloom peaches
sublimely yielding
to rich whipped cream
whisked by committee...
