reading Psalms
more beauty and
comfort every year
reading Psalms
reading from books
reading from books
with well-earned wisdom
light on evergreens
I have mentioned Madeleine L’Engle and Luci Shaw. They wrote a book together called Friends for the Journey: Two extraordinary women celebrate friendships made and sustained through the seasons of life (copyright 1997 by the two authors; Servant Publications, Ann Arbor, Michigan). I saw on Amazon that there is a 2003 paperback version from Regent College Publishing, and I ordered a used copy. I love seeing the growth and history of a favorite book.
“Blessed are the Meek”
Blessed are the meek:for they shall inherit the earth.
Matthew 5: 5 (KJV)
afternoon sun
afternoon sun
fills the lamp
on a file cabinet
my study
where I have
read and prayed
through many years
I may read
from a book read
during a difficult time
and now years
have gone by
and I read again
with gratitude
and hope for today
and tomorrow
small books
small books
from small presses
by my chair
their cover art
design and poems
