Congratulations on writing 100 posts on Wisconsin Poetry Blog!
many poets
to read with gratitude
books in my library


blue sky and clouds
new growth on the spruce tree
by the windows

reading poetry
many different forms
seasons turn again
always familiar
always new

everyday beauty
to care for and see
flowers and trees

A ppreciate plants in all their stages

poems we read
again and again
washing an old plate
the pattern
still new
