…and now for something completely different…
At dawn
Canoe bow waves are quickly lost
on the shoreside
But go on out of sight
on the lake side.
-1986
The constant swish-swish of skis
On a day long ski.
The constant swish-swish of wiper blades
On a day long drive.
-1990
My dog, trotting barefoot
Steps on a garden slug
And thinks
Nothing of it.
-1999
Word spreads quickly
as I approach the pond.
All becomes quiet.
-1997
Hidden in the vines
a large warted cucumber
jumps out of reach.
A toad!
-1997
Delicate puffs
of marshmallow snow
carefully perched
on a branch,
await the trigger of my hat
to melt their way down my back.
-2010
Deep in the tomato jungle
Fruits of yellow, purple and red
Tell of their readiness
To go to market.
-2010

. . . and at the Farm
Anytime we're not at market, stop by from 8am til dusk. From the Weeks Road, we are 1/2
mile down the Snakeroot Road on the right. The farm isn't visible from the road; look
for our sign near the end of our driveway heading into the woods. Directions to our farm. We always enjoy vistors who come
tour our vegetable, herb and perennial gardens, compost piles, sugarbush or greenhouses. When you arrive, realize that we may be in the greenhouses or
in the fields unable to hear or see you; however our friendly (but loud!) dogs should announce your arrival. Park out of the way and come find us!
