So few the nights of mid June,
when stars twinkle through warm air stirred,
by the wings of Mercury climbing.
The twinkle of fireflies to come,
(a heart race glow)
to dry,
the rain-soaked,
we.
By those embers (stolen),
we wish,
(at times) to control,
the un con troll able,
feet immersed in clay,
we accept gladly,
the nectar before us,
and inhale,
in,
dizzied,
splendor.

We are hoping to schedule the CSA strawberry picking days for next weekend and at least one day of the week following. Stay tuned… As I have explained to many of you, our strawberry plants were hit hard by the winter, and we lost many of them. The berries we have are great, but less abundant than last year. We may not be able to open the fields to public picking, but we will definately have CSA days!
