6the old farmers were already up.
7there is dew on everything, which means the day will be fair.
8no dew means clouds held the heat in, and rain may follow.
9the birds started before you did.
10if the spider webs are heavy with water, no rain today. the spiders know.
11this is the hour to transplant seedlings. the roots settle before the heat.
12sharpen your tools now. a dull blade tears what a sharp one cuts clean.
13the cool air holds scent close to the ground. you can smell the soil waking.
14a grey dawn after a red sunset means the fair weather is holding. trust what the sky told you last night.
