Heirloom tomatoes. How does a poem inspire heirloom tomatoes?

Its physical appearance is taken in and you know something special about tomato & poem. The physicality is a language both heirloom (as in tomato) and poem speak. Although their dialects might differ.

Also, both are fond of fresh basil.

    I must return to the piers where she wandered unfettered by a storm.
    Howe long did we watch her gracious bowing before an heirloom?

    The ball that evening in the courtyard beyond the backlit dome,
    all suitors lining up to greet us, take a number one by one.

    Then we spread the fan and curtsied, she knowing the instant to kneel.
