morning garden
shadows of lilacs
on the chair

small flowers
by the path bloom
in a garden
that asks little now
changes
over the years
some plants added
others appeared
on their own
earth, water,
warmth, sun
faith, hope
time, love
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. 1 Corinthians 13: 13 (KJV)

a long Spring
after a long Winter
more time
to look forward
and enjoy new plants
and all the flowers

birch tree branch
outside my study
window
many new leaves
and another part
of the branch
that seems gone
yet visited by a bird
this morning
lilacs almost in bloom
and violets by the door

The pattern of clouds is beautiful, with plenty of room for light. No wind, branches are still.

I watch the sky
wait for the sun
