Honeyed sentiment

lost; hoary downed locust hulks

gather grasses, dame's rocket

while garters slither.

Awaiting chainsaw's

uzzz....cuts Saturday stillness

earthy logs rest on shade hill

in death, future warmth

Another picturesque one, and introspective, too. The tarrying for the laters. I too! - I have these four huuuge Catalpa logs I had the City workmen cut and split for me when taking out the old tree, then stripped the bark off the bottoms, to let them 'weep' correctly. They look so tantalizing to me, and I can't wait to find the artisan that will turn them into 4 matched benches for my fire pit. Mmm .. another warmth!
