English term or phrase: pin cherries
from a poem:
"acid bite from pin cherrie"
Regina Gallero
capulín
Explanation:
While this is not the same species, for poetry it should do, as both pin cherry and capulín are a small wild cherry with a slightly sour flavor.

Aunque no son la misma especie, se parecen en que los 2 frutas son una cereza silvestre con un sabor ligeramente acído.
