study window
birch tree branches
covered with snow
Thy statutes have been my songs
in the house of my pilgrimage.

evergreen light
Sometimes I think of a few words to describe what I see. Today I look at the yard from my study window, and “evergreen light” is what I see. Some wind in the branches and blue sky. Then I may try a few poems.
December sunrise
evergreens in wind
and light
December garden

Christmas Songs
Many artists record Christmas music. I have grown a small collection over time: Amy Grant, Judy Collins, Emmylou Harris, and others. I listen to a few songs here and there.
light shines
through one window
and falls on the wood
frame of another
the light is shared
leaves fall
leaves fall
by my study window
reach the earth
leaves fall
by my study window
reach gardens
where primroses,
hosta, and lilies grow
small study

sun reaches the painting
adds another layer

gold hosta leaves
and sounds of rain
October morning
some water
for the Christmas cactus
new buds grow
October days
and November in sight
frost on the ground
October 2020
all a day can hold
sun and shadows
on the wood window frame
above my desk
in my small study
late afternoon
sky colors and no wind
quiet day
sunset as I write
sky changes
to night
sunrise
for as long
as I can remember
the wonder of books
November 2020
bright October day
bright October day
Fall days begin to go by
a poem holds the view
still for a moment
