Native Americans call June's Full Moon "Strawberry Moon"— last of Spring, first of Summer. Haida say it's "Berries Ripen Moon", Europeans call it "Honey Moon" as more couples marry in June. A bowl of fresh strawberries in front of a girl, but her mind is pondering on something else— could it be Lois Lenski's 1945 book "Strawberry Girl" on a girl growing strawberries in Florida? or this year's Super Moon in June since it is coming closest to the Earth? perhaps she read the trivia in Quaker Oatmeal box that a strawberry has 200 seeds? or Goethe saying "Only birds and children know what strawberries taste like."? I show her strawberries stamps from U.S. & San Marino— will trade them for her strawberries. She says "I'll think it over but my mind is hovering with Strawberry Moon at Stonehenge." — Peter Y.
