clouds and yet
enough light
to fill a jam jar
with the last
of the carnations
music and rest
sun fills the daffodils
by the window
patterns on my floor
moving with the breeze
sun from the West
highlights
branches of leaves
Time of Singing, Spring 2011
different shapes
of the rose bush
and lilacs in the yard
they grew towards
the light
reading a new book
the fragrance
of fresh paper

years go by and gift of a new Spring
years go by . . .
grateful for the
gift of a new Spring
years go by
leaves fall
time of rest
then rebirth
God’s time
not mine
