old photos
on my desk –
bleeding hearts in bloom
“old photos” was published first in Time of Singing poetry journal (1994).


birds perch
in sheltering branches
a grain of mustard seed
Matthew 13: 31 – 32

Time of Singing poetry journal, 1995
This was one of my first haiku to be published in a print journal.

all the ways
light flows through
days, seasons, years
gratitude and love
in my heart


Thy statutes
have been my songs
in the house of my pilgrimage.
Psalm 119: 54

grateful for flowers
all year – gardens
and stores – photos


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

That I may publish
with the voice of thanksgiving,
and tell of all thy wondrous works.
Psalm 26: 7

family tablecloths
passed on to me
they look like
the art I select
for my blogs


predawn
and watching
the sky grow light
gift of another day
to read and write
