Summer poetry journals arrive, and I also read current posts and books. As we know, artists are adding their work to our common journey with COVID-19. Grateful for all. Karl and I are fully vaccinated and wear our face masks. These are two of my poems from this time. My goal with blogs is to offer a few moments of hope. Thank you and take good care.
May garden
daffodils bloom
through the night
I take a break
from the news
and all the stories
that matter so much
and am blessed
by the sight
of tomatoes
in an old bowl
kitchen counter sun
And always the Psalms:
God be merciful unto us, and bless us;
and cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.
That thy way may be known upon earth,
thy saving health among all nations.
Psalm 67: 1 – 2
