the ripening….

june is here

and it’s clear

to me

that things will be good for a while

//how long?

i couldn’t say,

oh how i wish june would stay

(he’s such a handsome fellow that i adore.)

if june were a man:

he’d be tall and tan

with a golden curl on his brow–

son of apollo,

the sun god we follow,

and easy and quick with a smile–

oh kiss me,

i’d swoon,

my dusk loving june,

the crickets are drunk

on the season.

poem by 20 year old me.

have you ever been full of berries? bonny picks, i eat. 🙂

my mother land, the foothills, filled with yarrow and blue horizons.

we tromped through way too much poison oak to say high to this beauty…

blissed out on june.

how lovely is this rural driveway home?

it’s as if i’ve finally gotten my owl from hogwarts…except magic school is not at a castle, it’s in a garden.

wendy is summer’s child. picking sour plums and scratching mosquito bites.

what will you do with these brilliant eternal evenings?

that solstice drawing near, yawning like summer dawn.
