old poem and new photo

all the more yellow
because of grey skies
daffodils
forsythia
dandelions

old lilacs in fog
promises of God
still holding true

Spring Poems

skeins of geese flying
to our neighbor Canada
a brand new chapter…
books arriving in the mail
songs of beauty and courage

(Bell’s Letters Poet, 2011)

*

gardens growing
long before we came here
how deep the roots
must be and decades old
planted in God’s earth

*

blue sky
with cotton clouds
snowdrops
