new year sunrise
light fills
the red poinsettia
seeing new details
in the old painting
February light
kitchen window
forsythia in bloom
and a daffodil in light
green ferns
in morning light
bird songs
sunrise
small branch growing
from the old tree trunk
summer sun
thrift store bowl painted
with leaves and fruit
staying with the light
I read in different corners
of the house
painting a new day
with grace and prayer
watercolor sky
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Psalm 119: 105 (KJV)
