November garden
November garden
fallen leaves so much has died
a single rose blooms
An old poem still new – always beauty, always hope.
Published in Pegasus, SMILE, and The Discerning Poet.
blue gloves rest
blue gloves rest
on wheelbarrow of weeds
autumn work
pink clouds
pink clouds
over Lake Michigan
as I listen to old hymns
my heart gathers peace
for this day
robins
A few petunias
snapdragons, gold and white mums
the robins are gone.
Holding in my heart
as days become cold and dark
robins will return.
PEGASUS (1994)

from beloved books

and waves to shore
