Pricey Heirloom Tomatoes

Guido’s

Upscale Berkshire market
Opposite the former Dakota
Now gone fusion
Dakoto
Just up the road from
Mazzeo’s
Restaurant renowned for meats
Specialty sold at
Guido’s
Where we pack the freezer
With their awesome sausage
Summers on the grill
Everything pricey
High quality
After an appointment
In Pittsfield
Astrid shopped
Admired two tomatoes
One yellow
The other deep greenish red
Not yet ripe
Too firm to the touch
Heirlooms she explained
The red one cost
Five bucks
Didn’t know it weighed a pound
Couple of weeks to
Memorial Day
Let’s plant them
Each year iffy
Come harvest time
But lots cheaper
