This morning, I am trying some ideas for short poems, from what I wrote yesterday.
grateful
to see old friends
time in the yard
flowers bloom
and bees visit
the gardens
primroses, ferns
daffodils, and
bleeding hearts
lily and hyacinth
plants from stores
now by the back door
Compassion International offers a Gift Catalog.
Karl and I sent a general gift for Art Classes.
I am older now, and grateful for God’s grace more every day. Sometimes it seems that when I tried to get a few big things right, other things had to wait. God’s time.
And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us:
and establish thou the work of our hands upon us;
yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
Psalm 90: 17
after rain
the beautiful earth
and gardens grow
sunlight in my study
praying the Psalms
on a Sunday afternoon
country cemetery
trumpet vines
growing taller
than the gravestones
