Mid June

a sunny warm day, glints of dusk

through tall weeds

                                  groundhog ambles

sniffs & is sniffed, rubs & is rubbed

if she could speak she might praise

this wealth of unmowed green 

these safe acres where once an eager

beagle rutted

                         groundhog’s unaware of

the old woman peering through

binoculars, the black cat against

a pollen-dusted window screen
