late May garden

late May garden
in the early morning
a time I know well
colors of primroses
and forget me nots
ferns grow tall

today

plants grow
in the gardens
gifts from those
who were here before
and bless today

Memorial Day 2022

books and music

books and music
from over the years
live on these shelves

even if I don’t
reread or listen again

somehow their
healing influence
is in these words

by Ellen Grace Olinger
