Red Cone (LF)#171- farm lunch

farm lunch

pushing through the soil
white flesh catches the eye
pink underneath when fresh
and ageing to brown
best for lunch
not sweet
slow cooked with butter and milk
a mid winter treat

they appear suddenly
in the wet winter
some brought in from
the paddock previously
placed closer to the house
easier picking
in future years
today they are in the orchard
a result from previous
picking and placing
