autumn colors
seeping into the mist —
water down my collar

Adelaide Shaw

 

funeral day
his old umbrella
won’t open

Allen McGill

 

winter twilight
an arc of crows
echoes the mountain

Graham Nunn

 

dwindling fire —
our conversation shifts
to death

Michael Dylan Welch

 

midnight stars —
the kitten warm
in my sweater

Lynne Steel

 

 
 

chapel in the rain —
the lift of white doves
against blackened stones

Emily Romano

 

winter twilight
the shadowed hill
beyond the hill

Beverley George

 

her placenta
beneath an oak sapling
first star

Victor Ortiz

 

prison vigil
cold gusts keep blowing out
the candles

William Cullen, Jr.

in the snakes’ aquarium
staring at the sun
