it is not a matter of faith
it is a matter of practice

SAMPLE POEMS

a morning glory
finds its way through
the wooden fence
          — Ion Codrescu

deep in the shell
held to the ear
there is silence
beneath the sea-echo
deep in that space
          — Elizabeth Searle Lamb 		evening bell
swallows flying through
the deep tone
          — Giselle Maya

 

Salt
on our lips.
Floating
just floating
in August sun.
          — Pamela Miller Ness 		freshly washed
the sound of the sea
in my hair
          — Jane Reichhold

nothing between
me and the rain
not a cloud of thought
          — June Moreau
