William Hoyt “Golden Pear” - Still life - On the corner of a wooden table, a ripe pear stands on top of wrinkled paper-backed gold foil.

One Pear

(with thanks to William Carlos Williams)

That poet’s icebox plums

eaten in secret

have nothing

on this blushing pear,

a gift wrapped in gold

and gleaming ripe

for sharing.
