Mom's Poetry

For Mom's 80th birthday I helped her compile her poems into a book that we published and sent to family and friends.

The poem below is one she picked to be included in a memorial leaflet for her memorial service.

The Five Senses

I have awakened early in the morning,
and watched the sun rise.
Ive hiked in the woodlands,
and heard the songbirds sing.
Ive sat in the garden,
and smelled the fragrance of flowers.
Ive tasted the first
fruits of spring.
Ive walked on the sand, along the waters edge,
and felt the spray of the sea.
Now, in the evensong of my life,
Lord, what have you brought to me?
