June

From Town to Country

By: Charles Giuliano - Jun 17, 2015

June

Migrant workers
Annual shift
From urban
Winters in North Adams
Eclipse Mill Artist Lofts
Summers in the country
Cozy ouse in Adams
A matter of minutes
World of difference
Spring cleaning
Planting vegetable gardens
Varieties of tomatoes
Herbs steps from the kitchen
Parsley, basil and dill
Snipped for dinner
Refreshing flower beds
Mix of perennials
Bright colored annuals
June when irises bloom
Glorious beds
Gone too soon
Hostas burst and spread
Separated for new ones
Ringing trees
With giant leaves
Critters under the porch
Mucking into everything
Overnight
Nabbed parsley off the porch
Ravished the lantern tree
Annual combat
Man against nature
Invasive species
Deer with ticks
Safer in cities
Perhaps gunned down
Asphalt jungles
Where only rage
Blooms
In mean streets
