I felt older than I was

my health

now that I am old
those years
give me strength

morning light
daylilies

how small the song
of an unknown bird
quiet memories

To everything there is a season,
and a time to every purpose
under the heaven . . .

Ecclesiastes 3: 1 (KJV)

SEASON and the Bible verse from Ecclesiastes are from our large print book, Quiet Christmas Poetry.

morning breeze
I open a window
for the house plants

branches viewed
in the corner windows
beloved old tree
