spring
–
the
invisible words
of the mountain
Silvia Bistocchi
Lamplight
amid the cork tree leaves.
A
nestless egg.

summer stage
mosquitoes speed up
the
band’s rhythm
Tomislav Maretić
*
crowded train
a moth on the ceiling
gets
a free ride
Tomislav Maretić
ocean air
waves making waves
in
the sand
Brad Bennett
*
late winter
the shimmer
of
open water
Brad Bennett
every reunion
fewer name cards
on
the table
David Josephsohn
*
finally knowing
which side I’m on
garden
walls

rereading War and Peace
the old pages are as fresh
nowadays
as before
Vasile Moldovan
roof leak
twinkle of stars
in her eyes
Lakshman
Bulusu
*
new moon night
in the starry silence
heartbeats
Lakshman Bulusu
comet
dances down
spitting fire, ash, and stardust
imprints on
earth’s skin.
