and spring returns

October days
October days
a few Christmas songs . . .
sunrise

ordering
a Christmas wreath
for my parents’ graves
even though I know
they are not there

Two Fall Poems
kitchen work
and poetry
bright fall light
reading poems
in October
some leaves fall
from the tree
by my window
only now beginning
only now beginning
to find my place and poems
late-blooming rose
from the bush planted
long before we came here
August 2010 and 2022
