it feels like spring today.
the promise kept.
two good trees
spruce and butternut
this went down in april
remains of the milkhouse
mosquito nesting ground
photographer's sarcophagus
no insect activity
yet
but a woman with
green striped socks
waits
she matches these
fiddleheads
protected by down
deliberate?
oh, no
my
reward for this
winter of hard times
the fiber of winter
disappearing
under the green frayed cloth
of may
it's mayday
today i put out
hummingbird feeders
a huge commitment
as far as i can tell
finished the pure hosta
added a little abaca
ready for milkweed pulp
tiny sheets
a tiny home
and blackflies are swarming
not biting much
yet.
