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.

We have bought used books from libraries over the years. I have three novels by Jan Karon from our Oostburg Public Library “A Little Library Growing Everyday.”
Karl took the photos at the Oostburg library in July 2018 and 2019.

Spring will return
here and there
and then I’ll say,
“When did this happen?”
Today, though,
I rest in longer light
on evergreens
