snow on the fields

gentle growing snowfall
evergreens heavy-laden
and bearing the weight
with such ease

all the fields
that will soon be
corn and soybeans
wheat and wildflowers

prepared for planting

old pine trees

old pine trees
gave their lives long ago
so we could have shelter

quiet
beauty

yet the wood seems to live
radiates warmth and comfort

these are my thoughts
as Lent begins
and I quiet my soul

staying with the light

staying with the light

I read in different

corners of the house

Winter Grows Into Lent

Lake Michigan

so quiet today

a few small waves

steadily to shore

winter grows into Lent
