Bill Melton
a leaf pirouettes
across the placid water
the soft breath of wind
Stephen Curro
the silence
of snowfall
midmorning
Jon Simmons
Stuck together
Alone together
Safe together
Mickey Kulp
A living shadow
Old man crow stands on cut grass
Pondering a worm
Steve Dodson
the backyard birds
here in Biloxi
sing all night long
Prisha Singh
raindrops hitting glass,
dark clouds conceal the pale moon.
lighting strikes downtown.
Zizheng Liu
His lifeless eyes stared straight at me
My father is gone
Uncertain futures lay ahead
Tim Suermondt
Today you would have been sixty,
the starting block of old age. Your
beautiful walking cane will never exist.
Maya Lewis
Gasping for air,
I reach out a hand--
to drown my friend.
Mary McCormack
a day filled to the brim with pages
like a cup of tea, as yet
untouched
Mary McCormack
sunlight spills its gold
onto memory's hoard
of summer days
John Kneal
Bare trees reveal nests
hidden when brimming with life,
leaves flown near and far.
Mike Turner
Silky violet petals wilt
Falling silently from dry husks
Bouquets, cut, condemned to die
Rebecca Batley
I would sell you all my sins
And swap every truth
If you would just tell me a lie.
