The Black Berry – wears 
a Thorn in his side –
But no Man heard Him cry –
He ⁺offers His Berry, just
the same
To Partridge – and to Boy –

He sometimes holds opon the 
Fence –
Or struggles to a Tree –
Or Clasps a Rock, with
both His Hands –
But not for sympathy –

We – tell a Hurt – to cool it –
This Mourner – to the Sky
A little further reaches –
instead –
Brave Black Berry –

+ spices – flavors –
