strumming
her ex-lover's guitar
silent
rain
Alvin B. Cruz
one year sober
a dozen roses
in
a wine bottle
Alvin B. Cruz
claw machine
all the ways
of
letting go
Alvin B. Cruz
another year...
yesterday's rain
in
the wheelbarrow
Alvin B. Cruz
The sky and the sea
meet where the blues intertwine,
trapping my gaze there.
Today waves shatter the glass
of
the mirror in my mind.
Maciej Faliński
From a small café
comes an unknown melody,
making me long for
everything and nothing both—
a
blend of sweetness and pain
Maciej Faliński
in the dreaming of trees
winter songs
of
the afterlife
Anne Fox
stray cat…
another unanswered question
wanders
away
Anne Fox
narrow path…
this endless wait
for
new wings
Anne Fox
still winter…
i search the night
for
a song
Anne Fox
pear petals on the pavement
she asks
if
everyone dies
Valorie Broadhurst Woerdehoff
New Year's concert—
the pianist leans
into
her tune
Nicoletta Ignatti
snow wind—
how fast the cat
enters
the garage
Nicoletta Ignatti
river station —
a string of wild ducks
continues
on its way
Daniela Lăcrămioara Capotă
this day
holding all the promise
of
the future
Jennifer Gurney
each note
becomes the concert
piano
recital
Jennifer Gurney
down the sink
all your exotic bottles
of sauces and vinegars
the
orange-flower water
how it pains me
to break its seal
