rain boots. rain. and harvest.



the garden beds.
have been turning chilly.

moonlit temperatures.
have just escaped the point of frost.

and the summer plants are calling to be harvested.

so rain boot clad.
and bucket accompanied.
i ventured out into a rainy morning.

and plucked a few final eggplants.
snipped a load of huge, veiny collards.
salvaged some green tomatoes from a weeping vine.
and pulled up all the dark red beets.

lunches.
dinners.
and muffins.
were had in excess.

oh how genuinely.
and dearly.
i will miss the season of harvest.
