Blueberries in the supermarket

We forget where they come from

Unlike how they are seen in the wild

Lucky are those who plant blueberry bushes

As they are always available when they’re in season

Did you know you could grow blueberries in a container?

Protected from the elements until harvest or you move them

Usually we only think of one blueberry, but there’s a variety

Even those that are pink, and used in many ways

Leaves made as tea to strengthen our blood

Best as a snack, or baked within a pie

But no one asks why they’re blue
