sunrise . . .
fresh water today
for the carnations
May 20, 2017
Poems from my archives:
pink clouds
span the horizon
seagulls take flight
stretching to read
new books
*
clouds and yet
enough light
to fill a jam jar
with the last
of the carnations
*
morning prayer
water birds flying north
stay close to water
