sunlit porch–
a butterfly alights
on mail from overseas

Maria Steyn

 

spring melancholy
a field of rape flowers
gone to seed

Naomi Brown

 

sweet peas
tremble on the trellis
the bride's “I will”

Peggy Lyles

 

melon blossoms
a yellow-powdered bee
wipes its face

Darrell Byrd

 

cloudless sky
a pheasant flies from
the combine's teeth

Anna Tambour

 

 
 

the garden butterfly–
my daughter not close enough
then too close

Gary Hotham

 

afternoon hush–
the cat takes another step
towards a robin

John W. Wisdom

 

thunderclap
the cadence of the rain
changes

Sue Mill

 

slash burning–
the scarlet tanager
hits a high note
an'ya

 

family picnic
the youngest child pockets
a watermelon seed

Carmen Sterba
