        poet Mona Bedi, Delhi, India...

      on a restaurant napkin first love letter

   supper time

   we fuss over the          local fair 

   new guest              squeals of laughter

                           from the ferris wheel

  poet Rochelle S. Cohen, Marlton, New Jersey...

   Cat logistician

   Plots in Situation Room

   Feline agendas             

                   Imagination

                   It's in your mind's Brigadoon

                   Where dreams awaken

         Ipanema beach

         Girl sways to ocean's rhythm

         Promise of a song

     poet Linda Amos, York Pennsylvania...

       Fog burned off early

    Making this the beginning

        Of a beautiful day

                      On a clear warm day

                    I harken back to my youth     

                     And I go out and play

     poet Cathy Porter, Omaha, Nebraska...

   Coffe brewing

   One cup                  Getting older

   Missing the other        Every song

                              Becomes your song

           skies for every moment

           cloud or sun

           walk slow

           take time to scratch the surface

           inhale the scent

           taste salt

           from every ocean

     poet Nancy L. Dahl, Ypsilanti, Michigan...

     white paper and pen

     just waiting             poetry words

     for a song               dancing

                                on paper

                choose peace

                best outcome 

                for everything

 poet James B. Peters, Cottontown, Tennessee...

     Haiku poem

     Seen in print         Nature dresses

     Enough reward      All her creatures

                            To the environment

              The beauty

              Of a snowflake

              Similar

              To the intricateness

              Of the mind

   poet t. kilgore splake, Calumet Michigan...

   poems rising in air

  turning and spinning 

words landing everywhere

   

                            han shan's ghost

                     drifting down mountain path

                         joining poet in dream

              below zero morning

              eagle lazily soaring

              taste of snow in air

 poet John McDonald, Edinburgh, Scotland...

from John's latest poetry book
