Thy statutes
have been my songs
in the house of my pilgrimage.

new time to learn

new time to learn
though many years here
grateful to grow older

we all grow together

seasons in the gardens

October 7, 2025 Ellen Grace Olinger

seasons in the gardens
older now and perhaps
not as many flowers
but rather the perennials
that grow bloom
always return

clouds and sky

September 15, 2025 Ellen Grace Olinger

clouds and sky
spruce tree branches still
reading poems
that offer hope
and rest

my heart sees

September 3, 2025 Ellen Grace Olinger

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
