Amigo

A true friend is such as you.
Many honest prayers for you
And abundant...

Dawn

by William Carlos Williams

Ecstatic bird songs pound
the hollow vastness of the sky
with metallic clinkings—

quickening in it a spreading...
        
Sunday Nights

The Butterfly

by Heather Reneé Adamkiewicz

No Drama Without Love

by Bencity

She said she loved him
Just here for the drama
He hurriedly replied
No drama without love, said she
Have no time for one, said he
Like you and I, said she
The two together twine
Or like old age and wine
Do love and...

Phoenix

by Pete

Like a hunter pursuing a mystical beast of yore
thus i pursued thy heart
to the ends of the earth
unyielding my resolve.

But unlike the Phoenix
our love shall never rise from the ashes
for it never was
and never...

Belle

by Pete

A beauty most pristine that made the roses blush
Of timbre most surreal that made the angels hush
Her smile most radiant, the stars in their courses dull
A soul most serene, the waves from their torment lull

Dust if you Must

by Rose Milligan

Dust if you must, but wouldn’t it be better
To paint a picture, or write a letter,
