just today, overnight,
the windows are open again
making way for crisp air
after a summer’s sticky end
long sleeves were shook out
and jeans examined for fit
while plans for soups
and groups
were agreeably sketched in mind
I will try to refuse the mums
at the grocery store
for a couple more weeks
but oh!
those peppy stems
and burning heads
do persist

And sow fields and plant vineyards, And gather a fruitful harvest. – Psalm 107:37

Indeed, the LORD will give what is good, And our land will yield its produce. – Psalm 85:12
