The price of pomegranate was as grotesque as our distance,
And the slaughtered watermelons had all the colors, but no happiness!
Somehow I found the fiery persimmons,
Placed in a distant corner next to the potatoes,
being ignored even by curious shoppers,
They were the outsiders,
And they belonged to my table!
