SPRING

trusting God
a little more
with my questions
fog rests
on Spring fields

peaceful morning
a prayer from childhood
still with me

November

As beautiful
as the other months are

and I think of daffodils and
daylilies, and October leaves

there is a special beauty
in November

just now forsythia leaves
are green-yellow, near the
yellow chrysanthemum
on a green chair, and the
old cedar tree and garage

November
