F---, F-----, and F------
Fish - Flowers - Flames.
Yes.  Alliterative isn't it?
Lettuce see if we can make it
as illustrative as possible,
possibly literate rather than
illiterate even.

Frequently I find it fun to forage in the forest of my feeble mind
for facts or phrases that please me when fitting them together.
Everything is relative you know.

Speaking of foraging in the forest
in Alaska
this is the season of Salmon Berries!
One of the bears favorite food this time of year!

A salmon is a fish, you know.
Some of the Salmon Berry bushes have flaming red berries.
Not the kind of flames that burn you, just real bright red.
Most of the berries are salmon colored though.

Funny isn't it?  I've never seen a salmon colored as the so-called
salmon color is described.  But lots of 'em are red as flame,
skin and meat.

The bears love 'em all.
Fruit and fish.  (alliteration)

Postum Scriptum:  Flowers.
Some of the Salmon Berry bushes,
this time of year still have flowers
as well as berries.
The flowers turn into berries like raspberries.
Hey! I just figured it out !
The little clumps of pulpy seeds that go to make up
the big juicy berries
look exactly like salmon eggs!
So the bears must think the red berries
are the fish
and the salmon colored ones are
the yummy eggs that they find when they rip open the
fish the color of flames.
oh, yeah, flowers.

THE END!
