X — NaPoWriMo

Posted on April 28, 2015 by Mary Beth Frezon

Many xanthophylls
yellows not of carotene
like squash and peaches.

Xanthophyll – look for
a deep golden color or
etiolation.

papaya, peaches
and, for unknown reasons, prunes
are xanthophyllic

I knew “X” would be hard.

    Yes but you came through. Glad you have some xanthophyll. Keep up the good work. Not many more days of poetry left. I know you will keep doing it because you like to and enjoy it.

    I couldn’t pronounce what you wrote, but I tip my hat to you!
