Tiny Mushrooms
Overnight, very
whitely, discreetly,
very quietly
our toes, our noses
take hold on the loam
acquire the air....
(Excerpt from Sylvia Plath's
poem "Mushrooms)
Last week our ohana guests noticed a batch of very tiny white mushrooms on a tree trunk along the driveway near the forest side of our property. They took a photo of them growing along the east side of the tree trunk.
A couple days later, they all appeared to migrate over to the opposite side of the same tree trunk, but the new batch was a silver grey color. None of them measured even 1/2 inch, and most were much smaller.
