in a basket

A peach
And a plum
Just sat together on a table
Missing their little trees
One feeling it was time to leave
One with too much not shared with the tree til it was gone
But they simply sat
Together
Looking regular       on a table

Knowing the same things
One looking sunny
One looking regal

A peach holds up the plum in the fruit basket
Knowing it will bruise
The plum would bruise under its weight
And so they hold
Never perfect
But finally in the right place for them        in a basket
