path to the garage
path to the garage
deer discovered
the hosta plants
garden perennials
grow and rest
return again
sometimes when I pray
sometimes when I pray
before a meal, I remember
my grandmother’s prayers
in Swedish, and her voice
if I could read
if I could read
every book
in my small library
I would then
begin again
two haiku
reading journals
new generation of poets
since I began
older now
used books settle
in their new home
