how small the song
of an unknown bird
quiet memories

praying the Psalms
old rose bush leans
against evergreens

lake and sky
the same color

late November
sun fills a glass

Time Of Singing, Fall 2013
*
staying with the light
I read in different corners
of the house
*
how still
the winter landscape
I whisper the Psalms
*
sunrise
daffodils bowed by rain
recover
*
I wonder
what today’s poem may be
lilacs in the wind

asking for water
asking for water
more often
my plants tell me
it’s almost
winter

trimming the stems
trimming the stems
of carnations
and giving them
fresh water
October sun
always seems
always seems
a short time –
tiny rows of corn
grow tall in fields
and then the harvest
