[two haiku for June]

~

     old bricks sprout seams
of June-green grass ~ this path
     is new again

~

turtle's slow shuttle
through the thick weave of grasses ~

summer looms

This photo of the field and trees here, taken a few days ago, shows the late-Spring greens at their apogee — the fullest and brightest moment of their life-cycles. (EEH)
