autumn cold snap
mum rubs
my aching hands
Peter Macrow
plainly knitted
Dad’s birthday slippers
stuffed with chocolates
Jane Williams
scent from
the orchid’s hidden flower . . .
my garden’s gift
Nathalie Buckland
red roses
the gaps between
our fights
Maureen Sexton
spring cleaning . . .
ending our squabble
as the kettle boils
Samantha Sirimanne Hyde
family gathering
the gossip that lingers
long after dark
Ron C. Moss
