Northern sun

Northern sun
shines on frozen beach
still the days grow shorter
shadow of poinsettia
on the wall

sudden cold

sudden cold —
Christmas cactus
already blooming

Quiet Christmas Poetry
Site and Large Print Chapbook

sun spotlights
snowflakes on the window
falling stars

reading one page
at a time
of this book and that
evergreens
in gentle wind

from Quiet Christmas Poetry
by Ellen Grace Olinger
(a site and large print chapbook)

Quiet Christmas Poetry began as a blog, and then became a large print chapbook. Please visit the blog for more information. Here are two poems.

sun spotlights
snowflakes on the window
falling stars

reading old letters
reflections of Christmas lights
on the water

different voices
create new songs
harmony
