when green becomes tomatoes there will be sky and sun and possibly a 
     cloud or two
when green becomes tomatoes there will be leaves and flowers tall and 

     standing straight and someone splashing, jumping, diving down
when green becomes tomatoes there will be wings and something inching, 
     green and small and a sweetly, tweetly chirping song
when green becomes tomatoes there will be round and there will be red 
     and there will be tomatoes (more red than green) (more round than 
     seed) (more on the vine than way deep down)
when green becomes tomatoes
(~Julie Fogliano)
