At Poems From Psalms And Nature, I began a new series on the theme of Mercy and Gratitude, which will feature my poems inspired by thrift stores, with links to the store sites. And creative notes in general.
Today’s post is Poetry Book by Madeleine L’Engle, which also lists the posts so far in the series.
We live in Wisconsin – the Midwest, USA. And I buy used books from other places online, as well as places in our area. So many good deeds, and books are shared with more people. Wonderful.
From my longer poem in the previous post, I wrote a haiku.
Spring poetry
journals in the mail
new season of art
writing and reading
I don’t see the dust . . .
then seeing I remember
and know He does not forget
and understands with Love
For he knoweth our frame;
he remembereth we are dust.
Psalm 103: 14 (KJV)
March begins
shape of sun on my desk
a placemat for my lamp
near the garage
on a cold March day
bird songs
soon the garden
will begin in small ways
snowdrops
Poems by Ellen Grace Olinger
February light
on the trees
easy to imagine
their new growth
in Spring
late January
new snow on a tree
by the window
