May and September
My father’s favorites
Sewing the seeds and reaping
their rewards
The miracle of life’s
cycle renewing again and again
My dry farmer father lived by those cycles
Watched the rain and
almanac reports
Depended on God’s
grace to deliver
Faith was the
watchword of each equinox
The farmer in me
shares those same favorites
May with it’s spring
energy bursting buds and seedlings
Rays steaming
the soil in my garden boxes
Awakening meadow larks that share their jubilant joy
September’s abundance
brings fruits of summer heat
Squash, homegrown
tomatoes,cucumbers
Colors rich with shades
of Autumn
Ochre, lemon,sienna,crimson
treats
