Patrick Doerksen
upon a hill top
I see the horizon's back
bent with hot scarlet
Kim Spencer
bleak highway houses
sit beside broken billboards
dreams then now faded
Herb Kauderer
gothic angels paint
monochromatic portraits
motifs of shadow
Timothy Hicks
forest flames below
a beautiful tragic view
for those on the hill
Emily Rojas
Warm like an embrace
A desolate hill, lit up
Such beauty, wasted
Bill Melton
You were in my soul
Before you were in my life
I was just waiting
Bill Melton
Nebulous shadows
Of moonlight slowly swaying
To a gentle breeze
Joseph J Kozma
Black birds on the road
Cautious snow flakes, lazy winds
No traffic at all
Joseph J Kozma
Chapel in the woods
Empty nests and peeling bark
Nobody to blame
Laura Fernandez Low
Old man sits and stares
He waits for life to return
Manta ray dives in
Grace Black
cerulean cry
winter claims her bare canvas
gusts of northern winds
Johnny Franco
Battlefield carnage
souls swarm the eternal light
seeking God's passage.
Tyson West
a hollow pine stump
day of the dead sheltering
a skull shaped mushroom
Tyson West
all yellow leaves flee
the cold birch limbs above me
stars sprout on her twigs
Nells Wasilewski
cold, cold snowy day
nothing could drag us outside.
the sled is broken
Nells Wasilewski
when you left--I cleaned
shoe fetish tied up in bags
trying to let go
Susannah Rickards
Winter. Old fence felled
by wind rests against an elm
growing bright new moss
Miken Namwen
stately red crowned cranes
prancing in the snowy field ~
my tallest sister
Nicholas Ling
Alone, all is still.
No one that I need to be.
Blissfully, I just be.
Barbara Tate
meditation bench
a journal spread before me
I wait for the muse
Nancy May
snow fallen branches
sway in a cold breeze, feathers
ruffle in a nest
Leon Becker
snowflakes fall gently
shattered within a moment
my grasp was too strong
Craig Thomas Holden
Through children worlds bloom
The art of tatebanko
Beware, paper cuts
Terrance Edwards
laptop propped open
caught in his virtual world
his coffee goes cold
Miken Namwen
mountains hanging there
holding their knowledge aloof ~
white-bearded old men.
Craig Thomas Holden
Lattice of shadows
Lilies shy from naked souls
An arbour adorned
Bryan Verdi
Rest the eyes in sleep
the stillness of night prevails
crickets jump and play
Robert P. Hansen
after dinner mint
placed with such delicacy
next to my pillow
Rachel Lewis
Leopards hunt silent
the breeze carries leaves gone by
the Fox dies alone
Autumn Perry
purity of page
continuation of thought
a smearing of ink
Deborah Hansen
Dewdrops kissing lace.
Amid this beauty, danger.
Wily spider waits.
Deborah Hansen
Bushy tail curves low,
ears alert to our presence.
The wolf backs away.
Tyler Pierce
Early morning chores
Orion fills the West sky
I fill grain buckets
Cecil Geary
Beneath the sharp lance,
The blue joker moth dances
Hysterically.
Rachel Zempel
Transcribed by black ink
A muted voice, otherwise
Paper sets her free
Angela La Voie
Intracoastal cool
egrets strut tourist pathways
pools lounge in freedom
Rachel Zempel
Fresh, gentle, Spring breeze
Tides of tears roll out to sea
A new beginning
Allison Cowzer
Lichen covered tree
sides most stunted and deprived
lessons make us wise
Jackie Maugh Robinson
this curtained darkness
something about the silence-
overnight snow drifts
Mark Volz
Balance of nature
The sun rises, the sun sets
All in symmetry
Kent Travis
cool swirl of water
churning in the river's crook--
she laughs up the bank
Elizabeth F. Hill
hummingbirds hover
sipping sweet summer cider
through delicate straws
Elizabeth F. Hill
sagging sunflower
disgruntled by September
sullenly hangs head
Sarah Lunsford
You wake me gently
reach to me and warm my skin
Good morning sun ray
Nicholas Finch
Morning dew settles
silver on the last fall leaf?
soon death for rebirth.
Hazel Riley
wind of change blowing
ruffling feathers, teasing wings
the fates are spinning
Lucy Ryan
douse me in feathers
bathe my bones in blessed light
Nephilim is dead
Quinn Li
You may have felt it
An undulating mountain
Terra from ashes
Catherine Minnehan
The first green of spring
protruding from snow and soil-
presents from the Sun
Ana Drobot
my flower garden
once again in its full bloom -
watching falling stars
