Poems From Oostburg, Wisconsin – April 2020
April begins
with rain and snow
always time
for poetry to grow
The Academy of American Poets began National Poetry Month in April 1996.
We began here several years ago, and now the blog is a record of our seasons, which continues now. I thought I would look back and review some posts.
A few petunias
snapdragons, gold and white mums
the robins are gone.
Holding in my heart
as days become cold and dark
robins will return.
PEGASUS 1994 (print journal) and reprinted in a post September 22, 2018.
On Monday, we saw and heard red-winged blackbirds in Oostburg, Wisconsin. March 10, 2021
I heard, but did not see, an owl the other night.
Yesterday, I saw robins.
March 16, 2012
I saw the first robin in the yard today. March 21, 2015
early morning
and wondering
how best to work
Karl calls to me –
first robin in the yard
yesterday I saw
my first robin
Karl heard a cardinal
singing in the yard
and we followed the song
to the bird in a tree
sometimes
poetry is a gift
plants and flowers
that grow from winter
ground in spring
