The Heron's Nest

so quiet
     leaving the city
               thunderhead

Ben Gaa
St. Louis, Missouri

starless night
the sound of us leaving
the paved road

Bryan Rickert
Belleville, Illinois

a few voices
in the ancient amphitheater...
meteor shower

Flory Untanu
Darabani, Romania

standing stones
a distant rain band
whitens the ridge

Paul Chambers
Newport, Wales

between the lightning
and the thunder
a prayer

Patrick Quion
Chicago, Illinois
