darkest blue
the cold comfort
of my own thoughts
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
dry season
the etched patterns on a sandy stream bed
Jay Friedenberg
Valentine's Day
blooming in our front yard
a heart of crocus
John J. Dunphy
room full of
butterflies
she smiles
Ram Chandran
attacking
from all corners
yellow dust
Ernesto P. Santiago
crimson...
the dust between our lives
south wind
not quite himself
a snow angel
Samo Kreutz
cosmic sounds
in moonless night
music of Bach
Tsanka Shishkova
thousands of yearsin my pocket
pebbles
reaching beyond
what was possible skipping stones
forgetting my age
hairline cracks
in the vase
Thomas Tilton
slowly sinking
into the thawing pond
our Christmas tree
not the mask
I'm I'm
wearing
radio static noise now playing coldplay
Elancharan Gunasekaran
a forgotten galaxy the river without a name
heavy rain -
the song of the blackbird so far away
Angiola Inglese
daddy penguins gathering for a good gossip
Sherry Grant
in and out
the ventilator moves air
between life and death
John Hawkhead
