grateful for flowers
all year – gardens
and stores – photos


older vision
grateful for my chair
by a sunny window

C old and time to
O pen books, new and old
L oved and saved – for a
D ecember day
COLD

grey sky with light
words from long ago
The LORD is my shepherd . . .
Psalm 23

all still new
seasons where we have lived
for years





November sunroom
orange lilies from a store
in the blue vase

new time to learn
though many years here
grateful to grow older
blessings for all generations
we all grow together


rain
brown green gold
gardens
first and last
to bloom
in our gardens
snowdrops and
goldenrod
pumpkins
at the stores
summer days
go by and fall
is near
Ellen Grace Olinger
Poems From Oostburg, Wisconsin

my heart sees
what is no longer here
buildings and changes
over time
my heart sees
people I knew
and gardens that grew
in different places
I write from my heart
and my heart sees
in new ways again
