tree branches
grow to the sky
and also grow
to the gardens
all in sun today

the garden rests
this February Sunday
next month Spring

how many mornings
have I read and looked
at birch trees in sun
and blue sky?

and yet today
is the most beautiful

Blessed are they that mourn:
for they shall be comforted.

Matthew 5: 4 (KJV)

praying a Psalm
in my small study
trees and sky
the verses bring
beauty and hope
to Winter days
and all days
