Two pieces of poetry are posted here in the spirit of smorgasbord which is the prompt from Sunday Scribblings. A wonderfully fast moving meme, feel free to read and play along with the bloggers!

In Scottsdale Shadows
Chunked tomatoes
cucumbers squared
green and red peppers
mound the earthen bowl.
Beyond Borgata Shops
scabrous stones crumble
over Conquistadoré bones,
silhouette of one-hump
Camelback crawls across
gazpacho.

Sue,
A spring smorgasbord to delight all the senses!
I went to Arizona for the first time last year and I was smitten.

Very pertaining to the senses! Loved it!
We regularly get starlings and grackles in our gutters, foraging away. Thanks for the spring image; we need it here in Ontario, where we're still covered in snow!

those are very poetic words..."spring gutter...
Both haiku and poem are delightful. I love the bright and lively colors of the first stanza contrasted with the conquistador's bones!
It's colourful, it's curious!
I'm hungry now :)
Very nice. Loved them both!
Love the visual of the Camelback hump crawling! Great personification! Yummy poem!

s.s piece; this is the first time i have ever shown my writing to anyone. it encourages me to keep going!
hugs to you :)
Lovely! Lyrical and discriptive.
I wish that I could write poetry like that. But, I wouldn't know where to start. I like how the haiku makes me think of Spring. Thanks for stopping by and reading mine. I decided to get back to doing my writing prompts.
Decidedly edible!!!
Bright! I'm in the mood for a colorful salad!
Very inviting, I can smell the cucumbers.
Hugs Giggles
Delightful as ever!
gazpacho doesn't like to work in my mouth!
Regardless, good work!
(It's not my fault I can't speak :P.)

I LOVE "In Scottsdale Shadows." What a mastery of sound, precision, and compression. I'm jealous :)
Beautiful! You are such a talent. Loved them both!
And thank you for your kind comment on my fabric smorgasbord. ;o)
You made me hungry with the second one!
