all the guests gone,
still feasting on the grapes
two flies...uninvited

scorching heat
the patched asphalt
oozing pitch

SEVEN HONORABLE MENTIONS
Summer reverie —
a sailboat travels through stars
scattered on the sea
Priscilla H. Lignori
the water lily
spotlessly resurrected
from the mud of dreams
Marie Shimane
the lawnmower
stops:
bumble bee
Mary Stevens
spring night
love begins
with one firefly lighting
another
Anita Virgil
heat wave
a rooftop trumpet solo
slows traffic
Neal Whitman
twilight —
the cricket's song
faintly blue
Carl Seguiban
домашно сладко от ягоди
лятото върху
препечена филийка
homemade strawberry jam
the summer on
toast
