Does not allow grief or joy –
Serfdom of this age.

Love’s Tree
Our first Christmas tree – Reno, Nevada – Monday, 17 December 2012
Branches hold such joy,
Each one telling her story
Of love unbounded.
Simple Joys
Cranberry orange
Baking as winter rain pours;
Licking the batter.
Prayers Answered
Cherry Hill Park, Falls Church, Virginia – Friday, 21 October 2011
Joy dissipates fog
Of age for mother whose girl
Is about to wed.
Angel Gabriel
All day on the phone
Sharing the good news of you –
Voices tinged with joy.
For Barbara
Carol Cizauskas and Barbara Dieringer – Reno, Nevada, 2010
Dim light surrounding
Meal, glasses toasting, warm smiles
Of sister-friend’s joy.
Twelve Seconds
Cardinal visit.
Remind: joys past and future –
The eternal voice.
September Angels
On awakening
To autumn’s tinge, pre-dawn air,
She knows strength and joy.
Joy Is
Joy is
waking to cupcakes
delivered by him
who wanted just the happy surprise
And to steal a kiss
or many before taking the bus
to the job interview
Accept the Gift
Contemplative Outreach Northern Nevada Centering Prayer Retreat – Presbyterian Retreat Center, Zephyr Cove, Lake Tahoe, Nevada – Saturday, 31 March 2012
Washing of the feet
While gathered around the fire,
Love and joy abide.
