must be – old lilacs
bloom so new

Karl and I sponsor three children with Compassion International. They are from three countries, and they live with their families. In honor of Mother’s Day this year, we sent a general gift to help with art classes.
morning clouds
and here and there
enough light for the lily
Poem from May 2019
kitchen window
gardens grow and
a robin in the yard
time with haiku
silence and sun
a new poem
used books
new for me
light on old
and new leaves
of a house plant
My post today is created from recent posts at POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN.
