winter morning
a ring of cattails
holds the mist

Jennie Townsend
chill wind --
the heart of an oak
leaves the chimney

Robert Bauer







her skates dangling --
first geese circle
the frozen pond

Paul Rainville

winter silence
I lose a game of chess
to myself

Collin Barber






taps...
a snowflake melts
on her dimple
