staring at the moon

trying to find

your reflection

Mike Fainzilber

love thy enemy

the one

I married

Mike Fainzilber

after the parting

sunrise and sunset

in grayscale

Mike Fainzilber

cloth on cloth

so near

too far…

Mike Fainzilber

what a view, you say

I see

only you

Mike Fainzilber

a haiku dream

when the soul

meets itself

sudden truce —

hanging wash

over the rubble

Mariangela Canzi

lonely conch the exile's blues

Mariangela Canzi

words float

in my mind...

new Beatles song

a scream

the dim moon bringing life

to darkness

Mike Gallagher

that day

when the world changed forever

what I was doing

Mike Gallagher

drunken melee

several cases of assault

brewing

snowy March

the creaking sound of little boots…

egg hunt begins

Maya Daneva

smooth talk…

I rinse off the wild clams

for third time

By Michael Smith

in the clear still pool

of your haiku I have seen

my own reflection

rent overdue

locked out with nothing

but a comb-over

Randy Brooks

thick family Bible

she only keeps up

with births

Randy Brooks

warming up

the farmhouse kitchen

banana bread

Randy Brooks

not toy guns

not real guns

she wants nothing to do

with guns in her house

ever. again.

in an old book

after all these years

her letter

still winter

and they are sticking out of the ground

buds

Ides of March ––

I stop looking for love

in all the wrong places

Robert Epstein

the manipulation continues daylight savings

wild licorice

with every bite

decades melt away

elevator stillness

blinking numbers

and eyelids

escaping the nightmare

ruby slippers

bounty of bright breeze—

ribbons and laces askew

leapfrog on leap day

so much light and yet dark

a hedge

between him and her

winter end

corner hutch—

my grandmother’s glass

war and peace

not always

black and white

creeping ivy

through the wagon handle

the decisions

I make

by indecision

Kelly Sargent

winter sky swallows the words I can’t take back

unnatural glow

backlit mountain ridges

boros below

snowbound day

chili heats

palate and soul

will she finally enter

foreign posting

the aerograms

I write home

city square —

the clink of loose change

into the busker's hat

Anne Curran

city square —

the sweet melodies

of a weary busker
