                                          sea breeze:
                                          my shadow hovers
                                          on the ocean floor

 

                                          easy silence
                                          taking the bunch of keys
                                          warm from your hand

 

                                          spring morning
                                          painted on the footpath:
                                          proposed tree

 

                                           empty house:
                                           three seedpods ripen
                                           on the windowsill

                                                                                     Jane Gibian

 

 

          on the coffin lid
          our faces
          in the clouds

                         September orchids
                         blatant sex in the perfumed
                         conservatory

                                                                                    visiting mother
                                                                                    all the teaspoons of
                                                                                    my childhood
 
                                                                                                                     John West
 

 

 

 
               heat wave
               the dog bites at shining
               hose water

 

               dog days
               the old fence leans towards
               its shadow

 

               a big wind
               erases the clouds
                                 the stars

 

               city sunrise
               the towers fade to breath
               on the windowpane
 
                                                          Sue Stanford
 

 

 

 
                                                            deep in the forest
                                                            the lyrebird's call
                                                            mimics the chainsaw
 
                                                                                              Michael de Valle
 
 

 

                                                                            long afternoon
                                                                            the kitten chases
                                                                            a bird's shadow

                                                                                             Sue Mill

 

 

                                                                                             winter dawn on the ragged hedge snow

 

                                                                                             thin wind on the washing line sparrows

 

                                                                                                 grape harvesting
                                                                                             smiling through leaves
                                                                                                 the new picker

 

                                                                                             quiet night
                                                                                             rustling of leaves
                                                                                             as the moon wanes
 
                                                                                                                                           Carla Sari
