after rain sun
in the garden
where green plants
still grow and today
begins anew
My new poem, after rain sun, is from Poems From Oostburg, Wisconsin yesterday. You may also be interested to read and view Poems: Rain and Seasons from the same site. One example:
rain
on new seawall
built with limestone
from a Wisconsin
quarry
calendar
by my computer
with all kinds of notes
handwritten cards sent
health care appointments
and record of progress
work continues
I look back
and I look forward
blessings of today
POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
O God, thou art my God;
early will I seek thee . . .
From Psalm 63: 1

You may also wish to visit Poems For Bulletin Boards. I enjoy the different WordPress.com themes, and presenting poems in different ways. Readers are welcome to use my poems in their lessons and art, with proper credit (my name and the blog).
Thank you,

Peace be within thy walls,
and prosperity within thy palaces.
For my brethren and companions’ sakes,
I will now say, Peace be within thee.
Because of the house of the LORD our God,
I will seek thy good.
Psalm 122: 7 – 9
These are two poems that I posted before. Over time, I am learning the poems for a new book, with Karl’s photos. It is interesting to see which poems work well in different posts, and that I remember easily. Sometimes I rediscover poems in my archives.
poems we read
again and again
washing an old plate
the pattern
still new
clouds and yet
enough light
to fill a jam jar
with the last
of the carnations
“Peace be within thy walls.”
