yes! and,
I have an initial candidate! worthy assistant, what do you think of this 
friendly fellow, who lives with our 
Bard Valley buddy/editor and
versifying friend p l wick?

                        

ok, alright, perhaps not a grand idea








a poem! we need poetry!
         poetry from Nola Obee!    Armstrong, British Columbia      
                                       

eighth decade
longer to turn the page
than to read the headlines

                                        two magpies herd
                                        a quail covey off the road
                                        no jay-walking

a fistful of black
feathers on the sidewalk
scant war news


yes, and we must have a poem from 
                Margaret L Campbell    Anderson, South Carolina


Before Goodbye

    I'm saving every
    memory - coins in a jar
    that I'll never spend.

from Karla Linn Merrifield,    Brockport, New York
a powerful self-portrait. . .

                 If she does not swirl

                 into fire,

                 she will be your 
                 friendloversoul

                                                  

wow. . .
