Watching You

By Nancy Lou Henderson Running, leaping, dancing along the electric line, watching, praying you will be fine. Straddling, clinging, sleeping on the branch of a tree, wondering, questioning if you see me. Flipping, rushing, fleeing from a Mocking bird, laughing, knowing that you heard. Digging, covering, patting the ground, loving, seeing, as you look around. … Continue reading Watching You

In the Web

By Solahudeen Ridwanullah O. Spiders are here again tangling webs One entangles into the other like inter-net May our spirits connect Like the twin arms of a walking clock One ticks as the other tacks. Mother said honey is good for kids, I threw cakes away and shuddered towards her breast. To see is eyes; … Continue reading In the Web

Walking Through the Seasons

By Michael De Rosa Four seasons have passed since the world locked down, and my obsession with wildflowers began. When we walk, I am now irresistibly drawn to photograph anything not green. And before COVID-19, in that period between wakefulness and sleep, my mind might turn to work or future travel. Instead, buzzing through my … Continue reading Walking Through the Seasons

Toads on Lily Pads

By Mehreen Ahmed There used to be a green pond once next to our house. This house had a red-tiled roof and a great many picture windows. It was situated on a hill known as the Dev Pahar in Chittagong. Through those picture windows, I could see the pond down by the valley. The pond … Continue reading Toads on Lily Pads

Drama & Drama 2

By Thomas R. Bates DRAMA Again I go to the park To try and photograph A singing Song Sparrow, A passing Myrtle Warbler, or A tiny Ruby-Crowned Kinglet. Waiting a while for something to Happen, something finally does. Overhead I hear a tremendous Ruckus and a flapping of wings And see a pair of aggressive … Continue reading Drama & Drama 2

Afterglow

by Mike Turner Open window Admits the sun And cooling, gentle breeze Brushing across Our entwined limbs As we doze with languid ease Sated, relaxed Exertions spent Our yearning senses pleased Content, renewed As slumber comes With love’s passions appeased Mike Turner is a songwriter and poet living on the US Gulf Coast. He was … Continue reading Afterglow

Escape

By Ian Copestick As I walk there's a pleasant, green landscape full of young flowers, and trees so old. But it doesn't encapsulate the colours in my soul. There are dark, deep blues, purples and blacks Around the edges a crimson rage. Even now, I have to hold some of it back, or it would … Continue reading Escape

The Garden

By Anne Brison   Come enter through the garden gate, And see the beauty that does await. Stoop beneath the climbing rose vine, And sweep past clusters of columbine. Watch the golden swaying Aspen, In the shadowy garden glen. And watch as the dragonfly swoops and darts, Among the blood red bleeding hearts.  Then stop … Continue reading The Garden
