Haiku of the Week

 
 
July’s coolest spot—
skimming the pond’s surface
turtle exudes calm

What I’m Noticing

 
 
I gave most of my monarch caterpillars to the teachers at my school. One hooked its chrysalis under our deck railing. On Wednesday morning, I checked the chrysalis and I knew it would be emerging soon. By the the time I got home, it was fully emerged.
