February morning

February morning
poetry and music
small study sun

today

one person sees a photo
another a poem
or a story about the gardens
seasons stored in the heart
for Winter

And so my soul
Spills over
Into print again
As the sun spills
Over flowers
And the neighborhood
Sleeps

Endurance is eloquent
And marigolds are
Admirable because
They bloom
So long

Oh, my heart
Is tender
Yet God keeps it
Strong
And so my soul
Spills over
Into print again

Ellen Grace Olinger

Time of Singing,1991

sunrise
seagulls and clouds
fill the sky

mid-day
December sun
from the south
shines on
a Psalm

short days
stars brighten
Winter sky
