brown rice
with red peppers,
spinach, mushrooms,
peas, carrots,
and olive oil

for books and journals
grateful today
for art and colors
in so many ways
And from the Psalms:
Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
Remember, O LORD,
thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses;
for they have been ever of old.
Psalm 25: 1, 6
Ellen Grace Olinger
with art we can keep
what may seem lost
create with faith
the best we can
My father taught history, and my mother taught English composition and literature. Every day includes both. And there were peonies in the yard. Grateful today.
gifts to receive
and then let go
only for a time
garden perennials
plants and flowers
through the seasons
how welcome the snowdrops
in Spring – daffodils, tulips
and primroses
Summer in our yard
offers daylilies, hosta, goldenrod
hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees
chrysanthemums, coneflowers,
and asters – how wonderful
to grow so well when so much
is past for the year
Just some thoughts today, that I hope to write about again. We bought chrysanthemums at Walmart in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. And saw coneflowers and asters too. Grateful today.
