early poems
and new gifts
of trying to write
in a new way
setting aside often
for all the right reasons
and then renewal
over time
not a clue
that blogs were
in my future
and would offer
the world to me
September 3, 2020 – POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted,
and the right of the poor.
Psalm 140: 12
Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty:
neither do I exercise myself in great matters,
or in things too high for me.
Surely I have behaved and quieted myself,
as a child that is weaned of his mother:
my soul is even as a weaned child.
Psalm 131: 1 – 2
O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee . . .
From Psalm 63: 1
