new poem

sometimes when I pray
before a meal, I remember
my grandmother’s prayers
in Swedish, and her voice

drawing a picture with a poem sunrise

work at my desk
blue jay visits
a tree in the yard

reading poems
by Emily Dickinson
flowers I know too

reading poems by Emily
a new flower for me –
the gentian

early morning
light on an old painting
in a new place
