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

breaking news

no more lines drawn

on the door frame

a leafless tree

raises arms to the sky

praying for peace

On this first morning

the year stretches itself out

like a cat’s nine lives…

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?

a fog’s silence

strangers pass

as ghosts

sliver reflection—

a crack amidst the ice

where sky falls in

a crow

cawing in its black voice

news from home
