Mohua Maulik
jasmine scented
autumn breeze
rustles the hibiscus —
yet my heart is uneasy
thinking
about tomorrow

j rap
hundredth
time
I’ve walked this path ...
still learning the
shadows
j rap
the busboy drags
a trash bin
to the curb
spring moon
j rap
autumn
dusk
thump of trucks
on the highway bridge
j
rap
sunset sky
brushstrokes
of peach and lemon
j rap
cloudy beach day
a coming out party
for
the son
j rap
Xiaoou Chen
a glass of water
the chopstick bends
without
bending
Xiaoou Chen
heading home
the horse’s hoofs hardly
touch
the ground

a new year
talks of peace
not

hibernation —
I'm struck by an attack
of
hedgehog envy

cold North wind
merciless
on
old bones

moth-eaten quilt
it remains
the
cat’s favourite

I Loved Your Poem, but I Think I Deleted It!
On January 1, 2025 all January poems I have in my computer will be published here.
If you have a Cold Moon Journal acceptance for the new year and it’s not included in that January 1 batch, kindly forward that email to me so I can fix things. I was clearing out the trash and sent folders so a new editor could take over, but apparently things got out of hand! I apologize.
Additionally, I know I had two last poems to use in December. Those are lost as well. So if you are one of these poets, please forward your email to me.
Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience.
~Robin (Roberta Beach Jacobson)
