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

Daily writing prompt for May 4, 2023

Daily writing prompt
Do you have a quote you live your life by or think of often?

The Psalms have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.

This is a haiku from July 24, 2012, and other posts over the years.

Deep calleth unto deep *
filling my heart with hope
greater than my mind

* The first line of my poem is from Psalm 42: 7 (KJV).
