three windows
in my small study
how the light falls
on wood, art, walls




three windows
in my small study
how the light falls
on wood, art, walls
sun and snow
on the garage roof
fewer colors
in the Winter yard
a peaceful scene
Winter afternoon
sun on a page
of poetry
and then light
in the trees
thoughts of
Christmas and
snowdrops in Spring
POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
Christmas carnations
in the vase that used to hold
fresh flowers for Mom
blessings each in turn
return to bless us
branches outside
the window grow
in different ways
friends we hear from
once a year
From my post, Cards and Letters
POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
predawn and watching
the sky grow light
gift of another day
to read and write
C old and time to
O pen books, new and old
L oved and saved – for a
D ecember day
