As I type this post, the May garden grows and begins to look towards June. Today is sunny. We enjoy our old house, and are grateful every day. Good to have goals, and goals can be revised as needed. Memorial Day Weekend, 2023.
Bible on my shelf
a ribbon holds my place
in the Psalms
older now
used books settle
in their new home
new space
on a few shelves
donated books
“older now” was published in All the Way Home: Aging in Haiku (2019). Edited by Robert Epstein. Middle Island Press, West Union, WV.

rarely at your grave —
geranium blooms freely

I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people:
and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
Psalm 108: 3
new growth
on evergreens
and ferns grow
in gardens . . .
blessings in Spring
always new
every year
