You ought to have seen what I saw on my way
To the village, through Mortenson’s pasture to-day:
Blueberries as big as the end of your thumb,
Real sky-blue, and heavy, and ready to drum
In the cavernous pail of the first one to come!
And all ripe together, not some of them green
And some of them ripe! You ought to have seen!
Most of the world’s berries have been harvested in Mexico, followed by Vietnam, Papua New Guinea, Italy and Turkey. China, Poland, the USA and Bangladesh complete the top 10.
