thawing
the banana baked oatmeal
saturday morning cartoons
hearing the wind
through blue walls
sparrows gather
sparrows together
the family circle
finally grew
a chatter
throughout the woods
new friends
juncos
blue jays cardinals--
on the path forward
hanging the angels . . .
an artificial tree
up for the season
beef and beans
for mealtime nachos
seeing our daughter
snowflakes
the slow drift
of change
stepping forward
into what will be . . .
waterlily
white flash--
a grey junco flits
through the woods
shepherd's pie
served out of the cold--
ark aid mission
roots . . .
reaching deep
beyond myself
whatever--
learning to be
myself
prunes . . .
eliminating the stresses
for today
morning text
suddenly a friend
meets for a walk
nuthatch
walking down the tree
what is my magic
thawing
the banana baked oatmeal
saturday morning cartoons
basmati rice . . .
an indian buffet
reopens
kicking leaves
the scent of decay
rises
preparing
my book for display
waterlily
many words
cut deep . . .
and still we rise
many words
trade perspectives . . .
chicken noodle soup
wheels on the car
go round and round--
tea with Rebekah
waiting
for tea to cool . . .
haiku moment
sisters together . . .
a day away with
the Group of Seven
windshield wipers
flip repeatedly--
seeing our way home
