Oregon Grape & Pheasant Berry



Oregon Grape

Happy in sun
or shade
is the smallish shrub.

As its red hue spreads,
dense in Autumn
fever,

its perfumed shrub
lies in wait,
pinpricked
with blackberries.



Pheasant Berry

Green shoots
puncture
purple fruit,

as they weave
through the red-wine
bracts

of the most pleasant berry.
