hosta and daylilies
goldenrod grows too
I sit in silence
and think about
what needs
to be done now
and what can wait
until Autumn and Winter
Years ago, an older friend said, “You learn to save some things for Winter.”

New Books by Carol Purington
Three New Books by Carol Purington is a beautiful post by her family at Woodslawn Farm. She asked her family to complete this work for her. I ordered the books and am now reading them. Excellent work by all.

POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
books on the shelf
books on the shelf
supported by each other
kindness of friends
early morning
cup from a thrift store
on my grandmother’s
straw chest
near the window
fills with light
old and new art
old paintings
words from my parents
still encourage me
I rediscovered this poem, as I worked on Large Print Poems last year – a site I began in August 2020.
We enjoy paintings from thrift stores, and also new art from a few ETSY shops online (as one example). I am grateful for all the wonderful posts in my WordPress.com reader.
