the high sky —
inside my wholeness...
nothingness

SECOND PLACE
THIRD PLACE
in your eyes
the only song giving
me hope
Angelo B. Ancheta
claiming the night...
howling wolves and
arctic winds

(IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER)
grass blade
let go of the dew
me too
Anusha Tennakoon
world war one marbles
rivalries of a childhood
buried long ago
William Hart
a melody
among the dahlias
bees at work
Vidur Jyoti
break of dawn--
all the field cows
facing east
Carole MacRury
Hope to fall to sleep
and not to hear
the grandfather's clock
Liette Janelle
simmering
tea kettle on the stove…
wind in the pines
CaroleAnn Lovin
winter dawn
the dream of you
glued to my eyelids
