Fruit Jar of Life

In the tapestry of life, woven threads so finely,

Bitter and sweet entwined in a dance so timely.

Where shadows and sunrays meet in tender mirth,

A symphony of contrasts, the essence of worth.

For in bitterness, we find the taste of growth,

The lessons learned through tears, the strength we both

strive for.

Like a storm that rends the sky, fierce and unyielding,

It shapes our souls, reveals the depths of our being.

And in sweetness, oh how our hearts do soar,

Like butterflies on petals, they softly explore.

The laughter shared, the gentle touch of a hand,

Love’s nectar, pure and sweet, spreads across the land.

Life’s bitter-sweet symphony, a melody profound,

Guides us through the darkness, where hope is found.

Embracing both ends of the spectrum, intertwined,

We discover the richness of this journey, undefined.

Bitterness and sweetness in my blackberry at the same time

From the tartness and sourness, to the sweetness divine,

Together they make a flavor that’s so sublime.

The balance of flavors, a delicate affair,

My taste buds rejoice, in a burst of sweet air.

For the sweet and the bitter, together they bring,

A harmony of flavors, a joyous and painful symme-ring.
