Haiku52:
Our thoughts on food and cooking
In seventeen beats.

you pull one over
on us; by the time we
notice it will be spring.

Caroline:
inside the makeshift
farmers market greenhouse, plants so
green—like fireworks.

to be put to bed

My heirloom kale seeds
I have scattered far and wide
They come back to me

Poached eggs, kale and cheese
A winter's dinner make for
dining alone. Bliss.

lush leaves layer green,
crisp as the frosted winds out;
softening at touch.
