life is like
eating a
ripe tomato
good to its
juicy end
comes in
countless shapes
sizes, color
variations
bursting
with potential
supported
by a virtual cornucopia of
recipes guaranteeing culinary success
life is
like eating a
pomegranate
it takes
tenacity to make your way
through
those juicy seeds
a willingness
to stain
your
fingers in the process
trusting
in the end
reward
outweighs the mess
life is
like eating a
red hot chili
pepper
it requires
daring
plus an element
of risk
the payoff .. you win the trophy
for not backing down
