One Good Tomato

It's sleepy cat belly summer
rolled over for a tickle
with a secret hum hymn.

Love locust chorus
chants high low together
singing Om, Om, home.

July sunshine ripeness
orangey limey lemon
juicy fully female heaven

Fireflies rise to meet sky
cousin star brights high
lie waiting deep dusk space.

This is the time of less is more
and one good tomato
can make your day.

July 2010.
