i war in words

with all who war

tales of the tomb

Amrutha V Prabhu

his silence

between the lines

a calm sea-voice

pink dissolves

into layers of grey

gull landings

pink petals…

when you choose to stay

only in silence

petali rosa …

quando scegli di stare

solo in silenzio

jasmine petals in her hair

tones from a symphony

on and on without pause

February Moons

a breeze

of snowflakes —

I search for

the scientific term

for stardust

fairy-tales —

sitting over a cloud

a water lily

friend's confession

a butterfly spreads

its wings

morning rush

egrets posing

for a photo

breaking news

no more lines drawn

on the door frame

winter night

a frozen sweater

on the park bench

raises arms to the sky

praying for peace

On this first morning

the year stretches itself out

like a cat’s nine lives…

Resa Alboher

I clip recipes…


As snowflakes fall I wonder


about my whole life…

Resa Alboher

Reading the future

in the fireplace’s flames…

How long will I live?
