Riding White Roads

riding white roads
before dawn without a horse
winds of winter

....................Jane Reichhold

footsteps in the snow
emerging with the sun

....................keiko

moving clouds divide,
reappearing beyond reach --
shadows crystallize.

...................Zoned Cat

Once flowed like a red river
black isthmus -- old, cold lava

...................David Oates

filigreed moon
gliding on the pond
a cricket's call

.....................keiko

leaves in the gutter
hiding my cat's eye marble

.....................Michael Dylan Welch

sugar maples --
street and sky lined
with bright gold

.....................Jim Mullins

opening the honey jar
I see your hair in sunlight

....................Gene Doty

through the steam
of my cup of tea
your tender morning smile

....................Yu Chang

covered in ribbon and old perfume
our love letters

....................Sangeet Bhullar

the baby sleeping
suddenly suckles
vigorously

....................izak bouwer

in the sunlight puppies
chase each other's tails

....................acm

desert cool
of the summer moon
desert pool

.....................jane

thunderclap echoes
through the canyon

.....................keiko

rings are worn
hands lay quiet
anniversary day

.....................Lael Johnson

the moonlight resides
in our house tonight

....................izak

early guests --
the primroses
snowcovered

....................Philip Adams

change in the weather
all our cars dripping clean

...................Francine Porad

weeping willow next door
the first tree to bear leaves

.......................Pete B.

swoop from fence to lawn
a beakful of fluff and off

.......................Sue

a truck passing
on the distant highway
in the still of night

.......................izak

caught by the headlights
three-legged doe

.....................Pete B.

snow drifts
an owl hooting
in the moonlight

...................keiko

in the cat's cold fur
the scent of winter

...................Pete B.

the heat of its small pink nose
it sleeps curled up in the snow

....................Sue
