grateful for the beauty
I can see every day

grateful for the beauty
I can see every day

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
