a busy day
followed by
a quiet day
snow on the roof
and seawall

a busy day
followed by
a quiet day
snow on the roof
and seawall

late November
sun fills a glass
for a time

older now
used books settle
in their new home

summer to fall
willow branches
in sun and shadow

small steps
one day at a time
sparrows in the yard


older vision
grateful for my chair
by a sunny window

tree with full leaves
providing shade
comfort of faith
