Fresh Morning
The farmer's market brimmed with summer's bounty of ripe, fragrant fruits. Juicy peaches, plums, and nectarines beckoned, their fuzzy skins blushing pink and gold. Pyramids of berries glistened, their sweet-tart flavor bursting on the tongue. Melons lent their perfume to the air, slices revealing brilliant coral flesh. Figs and grapes spilled from wicker baskets. Citrus fruits added zest with tart lemons, limes, and oranges. The sensory experience overwhelmed - vivid colors, perfumed aromas, delightful textures. This abundance of natural goodness nourished the body and soul.
