POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
O God, thou art my God;
early will I seek thee . . .
From Psalm 63: 1
This is the day which the Lord hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118: 24 (KJV)
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.”

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.
