one month ends
another begins
evergreen branches
frame the night sky

new year
on the horizon
simple lines
of barns and trees
in the fog

placing the new calendar
on the wall
all the new spaces
without words
God’s time

Poems in this post are from Quiet Christmas Poetry – a site that became a large print chapbook. We donated many copies this year to libraries and other places.

preparing a meal
of fresh vegetables
New Year’s Eve

New Year’s Eve
looking forward
reflection
of the lamp
in the window

New Year’s Eve
nearing the end
of a book
with many more
to read

new year sunrise
light fills
the red poinsettia

new day
in my older life
sun on evergreens
