Late July, given heavy rain and sun,
I’ll follow the path to view Gull’s Rock.
With sun directly overhead I venture on,
thimbleberries tempt me off the trail.
The flavor of summer—
tart, yet sweet they are fireworks,
popsicles, picnics, parades
and remind me that
this season ends too quickly.
I savor each tiny fullness.
