a pomegranate can be said
to be somewhat like a Christmas tree.
little seeds tucked tight
inside round red fruit
are gifts wrapped gaily,
stacked tall together
under a decorated fir,
each in their respective ways
represent life new so sweet,
a bright true dream,
arms outreached
beyond the enclosed self--
where tingling taste
and unwrapped surprise
may open all
to their hopeful
and cozy
child's heart
gleam.
