bird songs

some time for poems
from Spring journals
Wednesday
old trees and sunrise
by Lake Michigan
Thursday
April days go by
snowdrops grow and bloom
Friday
light begins
in the sky
And today:
small flowers
and poems
snowdrops
Primrose and daylily plants are beginning to grow in our garden. April flowers are snowdrops – these small flowers and they still bloom.
some light begins
with clouds in the sky
Winter morning
snow on the branch
where birds visit
in Spring
predawn
drawing a picture
with a poem
grey skies
and colors in the garden
blue jays
still life painting
outside my window
Fall colors
garden rests
evergreens ready
for Winter
home from mailing
poetry notes
monarch butterfly
greets me
at the back door

mid-day sun
in the south window
geese in flight

still life painting
outside my window
autumn quiet
2012
morning rain
rereading familiar
poems of faith

above
the old garage
autumn treetops

Bible on my shelf
a ribbon holds my place
in the Psalms

rain and wind
flower petals
on the wood porch

Poems by Ellen Grace Olinger
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
Friday morning
fresh water
for the daisies
Saturday afternoon
yellow flowers
on a table in the sun
Sunday morning
clear sky above
sunrise clouds
