Come away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o
Blood red and fulsome
bursting with passion that tempts
but beware naïve lips
Lucid Gypsy 
Oh, this is a beauty – image and words, capturing ambiguity to perfection.
Tantalising image and words! 🙂
I like the alliteration with the B’s – and just a great poem and pic 🙂 ❤
Yes, I notice the alliteration as well. By the time I got to the last line my lips felt bruised and swollen. ❤ An invitation to a warning. 🙂
What kind of berries are those. I wonder if they are similar to what we call choke cherries. 💡
A luscious image, Gilly, and very tempting indeed. 🙂 Perfect haiku.
A beautiful seductress indeed, on both counts, Gilly.
Blood red and luscious!
Unfortunately blood red and poison! 🙂
Lovely, my friend!
Hugs from Ecuador,

Blood red
bursting with passion
but beware …
Beautiful imagery .
Clever! 🙂
I’ve been meaning to comment on the header for a while, Gilly. They look like crazy fireworks but less harmful than the real thing. Craftwork, I presume? I really like them.
Not mine I’m afraid! I took the photo in Padstow, in a gallery belonging to Rick Steins wife I think.
If those are, as I suspect, high bush cranberries, I would love to know where to pick them.
I’m afraid not, they are the berries of guilder rose and very poisonous!
