Plums
by Pearl
What is more mortifying than to feel that you have missed the plum
for want of courage to shake the tree?

EJ had no lack of courage when Grandma said it was time to pick the plums off her tree.
She climbed up the ladder at reached to the highest boughs.
Her reward was sweet and juicy plums that only homegrown love can produce.
CJ sure appreciated all the work his big sister did. He popped them in one after another!
