one month ends
another begins
evergreen branches
frame the night sky
Christmas Candle
lighting the
Christmas candle
tiny flame
transforms
the night
Hermitage (2005)
The Writers’ Bistro (2007)
Northern sun
Northern sun
shines on frozen beach
still the days grow shorter
shadow of poinsettia
on the wall
cold country night
cold country night
two deer in the front yard
graze in starlight
Sunday morning
Sunday morning
all the lovely voices
singing Silent Night
after the stores
after the stores
ornamental grasses
in snow
