2 summer haiku

Posted on May 8, 2012 by Susan L Daniels

I wrote these in 2010, on Gardenweb, so I guess those 17 years weren’t completely dry.  Marie’s poems regarding Japanese beetles tripped my memory, and I went and dug them up to share….

It’s a little early for both pole beans and Japanese beetles in my neck of the woods….

pole beans in summer
reach higher than trellising
how will I pick them?

***

Japanese beetles
glow copper in July heat
ignoring my traps
