John Beam Poet Haiku

Gathering Hope

the harvest plentiful                                                                                             
nigh the first fruits of SUMMER...                                                                                
purged  pruned  bough

Carolyn Devonshire May 14, 2010 at 7:53 PM Great haiku, John, and I'm waiting for the harvest now. Looks like the bell peppers will be the first crop, followed by tomatoes. You could say I'm "gathering hope" for a great salad! Best wishes for the contest. Love, Carolyn
