What’s Priceless in June
Yellow-billed cuckoo’s
ever-slowing pluck
Grandson’s “as-tall-as-me!”
sunflower patch
Flash of hummingbird
brought on a breeze
Twilight’s nightly
dance floor for fireflies
Charcoal’s flames
taste-testing kebabs
Acrobatic orioles
swinging oak’s trapeze
Black raspberries teasing
just beyond reach
A sprinkle of rain
before parching returns
