Warm Breath
The cycles
obvious at equinox
Prediction, not promise
of eighties today
A few more tomatoes
may blush be plucked
for mozzarella and basil
Nights reflect
change more than days
stark nip and chill
Reminder to soak up
this warm breath of summer
Oh, yes, let us "soak up this warm breath of summer..." the last of it... my favorite season!
Reminder to pick all the tomatoes when freeze in predicted, wrap the green ones in newspaper, wait patiently till they ripen. They won't be perfect but they'll be closer to delicious than those from the grocery store.
