dragonfly rests
for a moment
on the tree branch
long enough for me
to see each wing

used books
new for me
light on old
and new leaves
of a house plant
wearing
wearing
my old sweater
worn thin
Queen Anne’s lace
along country roads

sunrise
sunrise
in early May
tiny bird sings
on the branch
of budding lilacs
tiny leaves
tiny leaves
on trees
no prayer
in my heart
too small for God
as I look through
as I look through
poetry books
from the last many years
some poets here
some poets there
FEBRUARY GARDEN
February garden
light on evergreens
covered with snow
I still know the words
from songs long ago
