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

POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN
reading journals
new generation of poets
since I began
as I look through
poetry books
from the last many years
some poets here
some poets there
poems seen
that did not
get written
frost painting
on the side door
late November
warmth of sunlight
on my desk chair
night sky to sunrise
fragrance of carnations
in the sunroom
reading poetry
my coffee gets cold
guess I made it
for the fragrance
Time of Singing poetry journal
