June 7: Viburnum

Out the bedroom window
tiny white faces
of unexpected flowers.

June 6: Reading a book on the back porch, trying to relax

vireo, over and over,

trying to tell me something

something I'd forgotten

June 5: It's always warm in the kitchen

Where is summer's heat?

Olive oil sizzles in the pan.

I pour a drink.

June 4: Driving home

perfect evening light
dance music shaking the car
three black cows grazing

June 3: Last night

headlights sweep the neighbor's house

a man walks past again

I pull the shades

June 2: The great romance novel that is this green world

rain still falling

one mayfly rising

ache of unrequited love

June 1: Lush

June arrives at last--
a wet green tent of leaves
and irises blooming.
