doldrums of summer
turning the house inside out
preparing for fall
everything’s being moved
only what’s needed returns
doldrums of summer
turning the house inside out
preparing for fall
everything’s being moved
only what’s needed returns
on the window sill
spearmint, garlic, and lemon
flavors of our food
while they’re not life sustaining
they add much needed color
scent of pine needles
diffusing through grass clippings
first mowing of spring
without much fanfare
the sun rising on its way
the cold soon follows
at drive through window
foreman ordering breakfast
happy crew works hard
