cold
Lake Michigan winds
a tiny bird
seeks shelter
by the kitchen window
grey beautiful sky
evergreen trees
and short days
soon to be decorated
with holiday lights
November 2013
kitchen window
open on a July day
bird songs and lilies
forsythia by the garage
bright petals and beauty
for all to see along the road
yesterday pink flowers
by the kitchen windows
and the first bee
of the year I see
kitchen window
forsythia in bloom
and a daffodil in light
kitchen window
and work at noon
cedar tree in light
forsythia
in Winter sun
beautiful today
and will bloom again
in forsythia time
tall weathered tree
clouds and blue sky
fill the spaces
where branches
no longer grow
