winter parting

I listen to the silence

she left behind

Chen-ou Liu

shower time

soap bubble after soap bubble

after my son's laughter

rekindling

warm memories

gathering monarchs

Douglas J. Lanzo

granting one wish one thousand folded cranes

Douglas J. Lanzo

wonderland magic

an impala bounds

higher with each leap

of familiar things

memorial service

getting to know the man

I thought I knew

flu season

I brush her hair

from her sleeping face
