Medlar to Blet

Leave them to hang on the tree a while longer
and let them overripen there ..
   After all, it is their autumn and their tears shed ..

Yes, allow them to weep slowly

into an old open bowl, cup or Coptic jar until they
are filled and eventually
   preserved and fit, for the children to enjoy them ..
