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

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

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

poem or photo
perhaps a painting
flowers in the wind


morning
kitchen, prayer
and poetry
the light
is different now

summer garden
some plants rest
some grow



growing older
goldenrod and roses
refreshed by rain
Poem from 2010.

time with old friends
poems in a journal
from years ago
