about

Childhood memories of fruit picking in Fife, Scotland…

lyrics

I’d only ever picked my nose before
picking fruit.
I didn’t know it was a thing that siblings did
until we did.
I remember the car journey
hotter than the sun
and lush trees flew by
their green one with the sky.
Cher is on repeat.

We arrived at the strawberry fields
And are handed a large basket each.
Mine scraped the ground,
I dragged the earth with me
around nature’s Woolworths.
Almost every strawberry we picked
was eaten,
only a few made it into the punnet we paid for.
Not enough for jam.

At dusk
we wound up in a huge maze
and cheated,
spurred on by grandad
who charged through walls of corn to reach the centre.
We laughed,
celebrating our achievement
by finishing the berries.
We never returned.
