About the month of June, Garden joy, good food and fluffy clouds

 . 


June (from Calendar of Sonnets)

O Month whose promise and fulfillment blend,
And burst in one! it seems the earth can store
In all her roomy house no treasure more;

Of all her wealth no farthing have to spend
On fruit, when once this stintless flowering end.
And yet no tiniest flower shall fall before
It hath made ready at its hidden core





Its tithe of seed, which we may count and tend
Till harvest. Joy of blossomed love, for thee
Seems it no fairer thing can yet have birth?
No room is left for deeper ecstasy?






Watch well if seeds grow strong, to scatter free
Germs for thy future summers on the earth.
A joy which is but joy soon comes to dearth.

Helen Hunt, 1830 - 1885
 
 



The best way to end a wonderful day in the garden is with a delicious meal. We eat very little meat, and when we do, it's only from organic farming. The quality and taste are top-notch. Here, we had lamb chops with vegetable couscous and yogurt sauce. For dessert, there were little shortcrust pastry tarts with fresh strawberries on a light cream. That's how I like the month of June!





I love those fluffy June clouds drifting wide into the horizon. 



Wishing you all a wonderful 

June 

and a remarkable 

Summer/Winter


Cordially yours,
