After drinking a Kona, 

We went for a walk,

Not until I spotted them,

Was there much talk.

 ~

I was delighted to see berries,

 Hanging on lime green trees,

It made me so giddy, 

I nearly fell to my knees.

~ 

The sun highlighting them perfectly,

It was still early,

Their beauty was enough,

 To make a girl  girly.

~

Never before,

Have I ever seen,

This color so beautifully displayed,

Except in my dreams.

~

Why, my favorite color, 

There is no logic,

Purple of course,

Is simply magic.

These are called American Beautyberry. Callicarpa dichotoma ‘Early Amethyst’ (Purple Beautyberry)

I  have never seen these before!; what a treat!
