By Joanna Ashwell

already too far

from the nightglow

a tidal wishing star

Joanna Ashwell



what we said

to the snow

an igloo’s hush

Joanna Ashwell



willow river

the bend within

a dreamer’s forest

Joanna Ashwell



pressing daisies

back into my memory

summer’s end

Joanna Ashwell



a morning chill

that old cardigan

wrapped around me again

By Scott Wiggerman

ten sentences

as the narrative

rambles on . . .

all I wanted was

a simple yes or no

Scott Wiggerman



the failure

of espresso love

I no longer

remember

his name

Scott Wiggerman



sunflower

steeped too long

in loneliness

Scott Wiggerman



windchill

the bitter icicles

of absence

By Robert Witmer

another possession

lost and found

yesterday

Robert Witmer



daylight fades . . .

a child's smile

lost in thought

Robert Witmer



waves darken

beneath the wind

the harmony of whales

Robert Witmer



angels arriving

on tiny parachutes

milkweed
