early morning
holiday lilies
in sunroom light




early morning
holiday lilies
in sunroom light
snowflakes
floating in the air
separate
together
artists
across places
and time
books and music
from over the years
live on these shelves
even if I don’t
reread or listen again
somehow their
healing influence
is in these words
I enjoyed donating some boxes of books and poetry journals this year, and plan a Christmas donation with a few music CDs.
reading old letters
reflections of Christmas lights
on the water
holiness
and humility
Christmas
Christmas night sky
becomes sunrise
tree branches
covered with ice
glisten in the sun
new year
on the horizon
simple lines
of barns and trees
in the fog
Quiet Christmas Poetry: 2020 Update is a new post at Quiet Christmas Poetry. I share the book anew each year. The posts that became the book can also be read.
time with a book
light reaches my chair
through trees
late November
warmth of sunlight
on my desk chair
all a day can hold
sun and shadows
on the wood window frame
above my desk
in my small study
new light
in my study
waterfall
