Two April Poems

sunrise stillness
branches and clouds
light

late afternoon
sunlight on the
April calendar
one step one day
at a time

clouds and yet
enough light
to fill a jam jar
with the last
of the carnations

different shapes
of the rose bush
and lilacs in the yard
they grew towards
the light

roses in the sun
some ending
some beginning
and some in full bloom
good to grow older
