Sky Father Relents

Sky Father is angry this spring Across the street, back and forth Brother squirrel races To fallen friends, unfortunate In their travels My tomato friends patiently Wait, shelf-bound, at home depot June 7th... Finally, a break! Stakes shived weeks ago Hear me coming! Welcoming their heirloom mates Goliath, Black Krim, and Mortgage Lifters All settle in, my hands busy Remembering Favorite herbs, Thai Basil, Lemon Thyme And forgotten Sage, guard the Corners My bean pole teepee, long a Staple of my garden Still waits, for the soak To settle 06/08/13
