forsythia in bloom
and a daffodil in light

Morning Poems
Daily writing prompt
What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?
predawn and watching
the sky grow light
gift of another day
to read and write
sunrise
for as long
as I can remember
the wonder of books
breakfast and music
when a song begins
I know the words
Amazing Grace
Steady Growth With Poetry
How would you rate your confidence level?
Daily writing prompt
I can say: steady growth with poetry, because of practice with blogs. I also read blogs, books, and poetry print journals. Reading is an important part of growing as a writer, as many have observed. Practice helps with “confidence level.” Always more to learn, a poem can be revised, and an editor may have a good idea.
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
February patience
As I pray a Psalm, on this sunny morning, I think “February patience.” I’ll try a poem.
praying a Psalm
in my small study
trees and sky
the verses bring
beauty and hope
to Winter days
and all days

TREES
reading poems
by Ted Kooser
and I look again
at the trees
and some years
were hard and also
the new growth
in today’s sun
and they are beautiful
