bright spring day
learning new skills
from a grandchild
Beverley George
young lips
measure regret
on bony cheeks
Mignon Patterson
wagging school
the afternoon vanishes
into a puff of smoke
Louise Hopewell
cloud turrets
on the rooftop
childhood home
Gavin Austin
cobbled sky . . .
amongst the shaken rubble
a dusty doll
Rob McKinnon
final siren—
a newborn sings the song
with its legs
Rob Scott
