Summer Night
Not a season for whispers
it harkens jigs and dance,
accompanied by nonsensical song.
Friends gather at night,
"welcome all, ladybirds and dragonflies,
come let’s celebrate the sun.”
But look at the
Platters of color
Salads of bounty
Soba and mushrooms
and a kaleidoscope of flavor
Oyakodan perfectly dressed with
small market vegetables.
