the months and seasons
asters and coneflowers
and bouquets
all year
growing older
growing older
goldenrod and roses
refreshed by rain
Poem from 2010.
hosta and daylilies
hosta and daylilies
goldenrod grows too
I sit in silence
and think about
what needs
to be done now
and what can wait
until Autumn and Winter
Years ago, an older friend said, “You learn to save some things for Winter.”
day grows more clear
day grows more clear
primroses grow past
the flower garden
today
primroses growing
from garden to lawn
deep decades of roots
strengthen my faith
for new dreams
Published in SMILE, 2012
Karl mows around the primroses until their flowers are past for the year. And the primroses return every year. We did not plant them, and are grateful for how they grow in different places in the yard.

early May garden
The gardens begin to grow more in May. Daffodils and primroses bloom. Hosta and daylily plants grow. And dandelions.

begin to grow . . .
old fall leaves and
their new green leaves
