This jewel, doesn't look so bright or pretty and has plenty of scars outside.
When you cut it open, what do you find inside?
Lots of sweet little pieces of perfected bejeweled paradise, waiting to be discovered and taken aside.
And
when you finally taste the little nuggets,
Bursting out of the flavourful seductive little deep red seeds,
Comes a paradise of pas de deux of crunchiness and sweetness, that you've never tasted and imagined before.
And you slowly savour each segment, each nectar of paradise,
wanting the nexus of sweetness and crunchiness, wishing it to never end.
Eventually, it does; and you know you need to stop.
But not wanting it to end, you surrender willingly and reach for another, and it all begins again.
