February light
on the trees
easy to imagine
their new growth
in spring

winter views
grace of three tulips
from the store
in the blue vase
by the window

old photos
on my desk –
bleeding hearts in bloom

birds perch
in sheltering branches
a grain of mustard seed

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


time to remember
with gratitude and hope
Holy Week
April morning
robin on the ash tree stump
where hosta grows
sunrise
we live in the Light
of Easter


April
a new month
more flowers
and birds
in the gardens

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