Deborah Guzzi
the maple pollen
covers the car's windshield pane ?
empty tissue box
Bill Melton
A kaleidoscope
Changing, shifting, always new
A sunset at sea
Bill Melton
A faded picture
Final evidence that love
Was active and strong
M. Sakran
alone in a cage
the sound of a single bird
searching for ideas
Joseph Roberts
passing spring shower
the robin shakes off the wet
bursting into song
Joan Gove
Dragonflies dancing
summer air hangs still and wet
remembering when
Clarise Samuels
just like violins
playing gently in the night;
the cloud shields the moon.
Sandra Barnett
Squirrel on hornbeam.
Gray fur against gray, bare limbs.
Sunshine and shadows.
Sandra Barnett
Green grass shoots of spring
watered by yesterday's snow.
A flock of robins.
Tyson West
hyacinths break earth
snow retreats on mica peak
the first kitchen fly
Tyson West
pure white crocus curves
the chaos of daffodils
mute brown and green pine
Traci Howell
Red, Pink Bleeding Hearts
A drop of blood hanging down
Nature's Artistry
Grace Black
emerging flora
dancing daily to forget
buried with poets
Grace Black
whiskey summered tongue
scattered words, fallen petals
dead forget-me-nots
Deborah Eley
Stars spill out their light
into the earth's waiting sky.
Man's eyes turn upwards.
Cristian Hunter
With the night comes fear,
a prowling owl asking, "who?"
It's too late for shrew.
Melissa Patterson
Colorful eggs and
children dot the rolling hills?
the sound of laughter.
Avery Steed
i long for you to
hug my bruises. it hurts in
a familiar way
Romalyn Ante
climbing mango trees
swapping sunlight for sweetness -
ants on a dried twig
Dennis Lowe
death of white tulips;
a remnant of my mother
in a dragon vase
Jacob Timothy Lange
Not made of paper
Thoughts, freedom to imagine
The library calls
Frank Geurrandeno
boardwalk of turtles
amble seaside at sun's surge
current sweeps a kiss
Nancy May
waking in a daze
a wasp's morning alarm clock
the cold spring raindrop
Nancy May
the butterfly's wings
catch a fallen rainbow from
the crumbling storm clouds
Monty Gilmer
A practical bird,
having no tree of his own,
borrows another's.
Lucy Smyth
I have written two -
letters never to be sent
smug empowerment
Shrikaanth Krishnamurthy
a trapped bumble bee
thumping against the window
a roomful of hands
Rbert Manchester
Through wandering clouds
in bold Picasso sky a
half-moon, hand painted
Nells Wasilewski
stormy spring weather
I saw your tears glistening
even through the rain
Nells Wasilewski
spring lasted three days
chill winds blew--first rain then snow
winter's last revenge
Rbert Manchester
This a witches day
haze dancing just above ground
silent sentry crow.

the winter sunset
swims in a warm blue ocean
life left on the beach

Sing and dance til death

the deep winter sky?
brushed by bare maple branches
still, even in wind

Rain falls like shiny
silver coins from the awning,
tapping on the lawn.

Eyes that never met
Held a love so pure and warm
Fate's secrets untold
Celine Fuchs
Snow softly falling
Glowing white, silent on this
Cold winter evening.

ice clings to the banks
yielding to the warming rays
fish shacks melt away
Lamart Cooper
bodega's bread line
snakes left then back right forming
ahead of sunrise
Martin Golan
O lake, may I float
Across your bright satin skin
Pull oars and glide, glide ?
John Han
frozen lake melting
a flock of ducks steps into
the sun's reflection
John Han
he still wags his tail?
the morning after my dog
moved to a new home
Jay Cates
one cherry blossom
fallen on a swimming duck
riding like a king
Stu Buck
For man is sculpted,
Rent and ripped by time and space,
And returns to dust.
Colin Kreik
Soggy and dank days,
Nature blooms life upon us
Fresh air circulates
Howard Hendrix
Basho you old frog
from devouring your kerplunks
I'm too stuffed to jump

in driest winter
lone chorus frog's sudden song --
your voice echoing
Pamela Knight
The ship Offended
Remains quagmire in the bay
Anchor entangled
Aneesha Roy
Sanguine red, twilit
sky; arboreal splendor
drifting by - And I.
