mountain mist
the emptiness
between
us
Andrew Brindle
a silent falling
of late summer dreams
ocean
rain
Andrew Brindle
all the words
we left unsaid
shrouded
mountains
Andrew Brindle
rain
needles
the streetlight spotlights
a shivering cat
Anju Kishore
summer
holidays
a family of monkeys
on the clothesline

wind
gusts
a comb-over
flips
Joseph P. Wechselberger
Father's
Day
the annual reminder
I will never be one

a
squirrel nibbling
the tree's last pear

we destroy forests
to make paper and pencils
to
write 'save the trees'

John J. Dunphy
high-end church
its communion wine
very
dry
John J. Dunphy
leaves changing
nearly as quickly
as
life
Jennifer Gurney
all along the street
in the quiet of the night
fireflies dance
as if
no one is watching
