We enjoy buying flower bouquets when we go to a store. As bouquets fade, we create new arrangements.
fog, green leaves
and beach grasses
a blue vase
with red carnations
by the window
trimming the stems
of carnations
and giving them
fresh water
October sun
different Summer
this year and beautiful
in a new way
lake levels and
seawalls
2021
rice, beans
and spinach
with olive oil
sun on the old path
poetry
mid-September
pumpkins for sale
at the stores
late Summer afternoon
and happy to wait
with the cart for Karl
by the doors at Walmart
errands in Sheboygan
on a beautiful day
Pick ‘n Save and Walmart
And now I remember this poem:
late afternoon
on a warm Fall day
people of all ages
at the market
time for supper
Mentink’s Market Piggly Wiggly

the day changes
with light and seasons
Autumn soon
cedar tree shadows
on the cedar garage
early light
red begonia plant
in sun by the door
late afternoon
near windows
sun on leaves where
hummingbirds were
today and yesterday
small flowers
near the kitchen windows
first hummingbird
study window
on the second floor
blue sky and sun
trees and branches
grow in different ways
plants and flowers
for sale picture
the months and seasons
asters and coneflowers
and bouquets
all year
