poetry books
from the last many years
some poets here

Psalm 147 “He giveth snow . . .”
He giveth snow
like wool:
he scattereth the hoarfrost
like ashes.
Psalm 147: 16 (KJV)
sunrise
sunrise
for as long
as I can remember
the wonder of books
part-way through
part-way through
a good book
half the gold leaves
on the tree
half on the ground
reading a book
reading a book
I bought used
some time ago
words that bless
today
new day begins
new day begins
ribbon bookmarks
from beloved books
rest on the wood shelf
