     P
age 3


sunset over Jersey
his hand on
the small of my back
 

leaf raking --
six inches off
at the hairdresser's
 

before sunset
the click of her
knitting needles
 

the special way
he wears his hair –
autumn winds

Aurora Antonovic



three quarter moon
hangs from a branch --
apricot ripens

Gina



autumn anniversary -
on the bedside table, his clock
still ticking


painting walls
from floor to ceiling
summer sunset


pepper relish
cooling in glass jars -
autumn leaves

Susan Constable



moonlit path
a man with a banjo
eclipses

Ashley Rodman



a gray day
only Edith Piaf songs
on the radio
 

last chapter...
the candle gutters          
and goes out
 

the swish
of gray corduroys
steady rain

Kirsty Karkow



foggy rooftops . . .
a sense of the day
only in outline


holiday weekend . . .
three floors of modern art
I can't remember


selling
   to the blind man
the faded suit

Michael McClintock



bad news
in the paper,
etc.

 
loud thunder-
political noise
from the radio
 

cease fire-
water balloon fight
stops for lunch

J. Andrew Lockhart

 
 
approaching the bridge . . .
looking up at people
looking down
 
Tim Steggall



full moon i like what you like

Scott Metz



her skates dangling--
first geese circle
the frozen pond


migrating geese
the weight of the sky
on their backs


early fall
the hairline moon
threads a thin cloud


faded rose...
sunset gathered
on the edge of a cloud


cold rain
a flash of white
on the robin’s tail


hometown reunion
driving in
and out of fog


tattered web
courting a dream
that got away

Paul Rainville



flipping the remaining pages
   of the calendar...
      september wind


Shiki's anniversary
a new tomato born
in the withering branches


september sunlight
  his new straw hat
hangs unworn on the wall


figs...
how tenderly he strokes
  his daughter’s hair


approaching thunder...
the bartender quietly reads
  the lottery results


first salmon...
the gloss of
her new lipstick

Keiko Izawa



sun-dappled seas...
the golden flecks
in his eyes
 
 
moon-bathing
on the beach
a fishing boat
 
 
sleepless
on this summer night
me and the moon
 
 
umbrellas open
on rain-hazed streets...
mushrooms in many hues sprout
 
 
restless night of labour-
a poem is born
at dawn

Sanjukta



ice fisherman
blurred shadow in
blowing snow


hiking
i walk into my own
silence

Tom Blessing



red dress
she blushes after
catching the bouquet

Ruthanne Baxter



autumn morning --
my old teacher doesn't
recognize me

Angelika Wienert



a roadrunner darts
across the wet road,
lizard in mouth

Jim Applegate



white clouds
an orange balloon
rises

Ross Vassilev



summer heat
on the beach an empty
wheelchair


afternoon nap
the doll wakes up
first


after the earthquake
intact --
the birdhouse


Sunday afternoon:
from the confessional --
singing
