Amid Storm

 Got a message from the pre-heat-dome sky

Just now, as I alit for a moment

Pausing to feel

Not meaning to be trite 

But doing what all old farmers do, 

And turn my head, sniff the sky, search it too,

I was on the front porch, east to the lake.

The west wind came right up, blowing my greys

And as I came in to fix a bit of dinner, 

The light from the west called me back to the 

Door out into my gardens,

The soon-solstice sky that I saw and felt

Already coloring lush this vesper

Lovely, harbinger of solstice.
