photo February-day 11


kumquats, originally uploaded by *nichole*.

bought these
yesterday.

first
time.

they remind
me of tiny
oranges,

little bits of
sunshine.


so tart,
my lips
puckered-

but at the end
I found a fleeting
bit of sweetness.

sour and sweet
found together~

needing
the
balance

of both.

  1. They look like they might be good. I've never had these or even seen them before. Don't you just love trying new things?

  2. I do like trying new things, well at least most of the time (:
    The funny thing about these kumquats is that you eat the whole thing skin and all, very interesting (and tart) indeed!
