Poem – June Boom

In northern California we have a thing called June Gloom.
But this year, it felt more like June Boom
That was because I had so many things to do.
Many people to see and many things in the queue.

But it is a fun thing when the summer springs forth.
All the way up to the celebrations of July 4^th.
My garden is beautiful, and the house is clean.
The land is in many hues of brilliant green.

I know that eventually it will slow down.
And eventually life will suddenly feel like a ghost town.
Until then I keep the cooking on the stove.
And remember that friendships are a treasure trove.
