predawn
and watching
the sky grow light
gift of another day
to read and write

predawn
and watching
the sky grow light
gift of another day
to read and write

reading a new book
the fragrance
of fresh paper

used books new for me
light on old and new leaves
of a house plant

early morning silence
books and poetry journals
time to pray
read and write
look at art

winter days
carnations from a store
by windows with snow

late November
sun fills a glass
for a time
My poem was published by Time Of Singing Poetry Journal, Fall 2013

older vision
grateful for my chair
by a sunny window
