seems settled now
new leaves growing

March sun
birch trees and blue sky

Hope haiku
Deep calleth unto deep*
filling my heart with hope
greater than my mind
* The first line of my poem is from Psalm 42: 7 (KJV).
birds perch
in sheltering branches
a grain of mustard seed
(Matthew 13: 31 – 32)
sudden cold –
Christmas cactus
already blooming
