old and new
art in my study
poetry by my chair
and art on the walls
comfort during
an illness or loss
a good memory
of support
and the new says
to look forward
as well

And So My Soul: large print poem
And so my soul
Spills over
Into print again
As the sun spills
Over flowers
And the neighborhood
Sleeps
Endurance is eloquent
And marigolds are
Admirable because
They bloom
So long
Oh, my heart
Is tender
Yet God keeps it
Strong
And so my soul
Spills over
Into print again
Ellen Grace Olinger
Time of Singing,1991
From my post, Old Poem: And So My Soul. I thought it would be helpful to some readers to also offer a large print version.
POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
different voices
different voices
create new songs
harmony
the faith of birds
the faith of birds
trusting in seed
under snow
My haiku was published first in SMILE, a large print journal that was edited/published by Joyce M. Johnson.
