t. kilgore splake
calumet michigan:
phone marketers hangups
encouraging old poet
secret admirer still alive
catfish mcdaris
west allis wisconsin:
The Desert
Cochise’s dry hot tears
skeletons of buffalo
windstorm ghosts dry death.
mary jo balistreri
genesee depot wisconsin:
Witness
As the storm comes
closer
the bent-limbed oaks
offer shelter
to fluttering finches,
yellow-slick feathers
curled into
golden balls
ornaments
of hope
in a deep-rumble sky
nancy shires
greenville north carolina:
little wren
smaller than
his own song
if I don't move. . .
cat curled in the crook
of my legs
donna snow
lakeland tennessee:
Today lilacs are in full bloom
Their sweet smell my odd companion
At the breakfast table;
What a delicious tea!
a j huffman
ormond beach florida:
Fog-filled dreams disperse.
Freeing my mind to wander
In and out of sleep.
Listen to the trees.
They whisper themselves silent.
My nature is to follow.
christina sng
singapore:
first day of summer
a raven feather
at the door
curled up with books
endless winter nights
spent in other worlds
jim kacian
winchester virginia:
top down
the midwest
unfolds
Sunday morning
a jazz riff
in the mockingbird's call
fog the sound of the foghorn
karen o'leary
west fargo north dakota:
sepia pages
peace settles central farm time
between the wrinkles milking the cows before
the cock crows
frosty and tama: "goodbye, everyone! treats, belly rubs,
and peace for all!"
see you in a moment
