1. deep within
   the melody of
   a fallen tree

   Veronika Zora Novak

   A lovely beautiful poem. I copied it in a notebook last night and remembered this morning.

   Luci Shaw is a favorite poet – also a photographer – and I think I remember that she compared the loss of a tree to the passing of her first husband, Harold Shaw. She is 86 now and I am reading her two new books, poetry and prose. Her earlier memoir, God in the Dark, is a classic. She is very honest and keeps singing her songs.

   Hope to learn about Renku when I catch up – congratulations to all on the success of a wonderful new feature!! A long winter for so many . . .

   And thanks again, Veronika, for your truly beautiful poem.

   Ellen
