That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving,
and tell of all thy wondrous works.
Psalm 26: 7

That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving,
and tell of all thy wondrous works.
Psalm 26: 7
sunrise
in early May
tiny bird sings
on the branch
of budding lilacs
sunshine
along the roads
marsh marigolds
another summer
art on the wall
by someone
long ago still
speaks to me
Psalms to pray
and poems to read
sun on seawalls
Sunday morning
a heron goes for a stroll
on the beach
older now
used books settle
in their new home
