By Kian Zehtabian Photographer's Note: I usually don't say anything on my work but this time I decided to say some words because some people may do complete misinterpretations like one of my friends.

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.

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
