quiet poems

Poems From Oostburg, Wisconsin

pink clouds
over Lake Michigan
as I listen to old hymns
my heart gathers peace
for this day

how small the song
of an unknown bird
quiet memories

paintings of trees
on old pine walls
quiet music

rearranging
art on the walls,
cards, and small gifts
from friends
I see them anew
