ROUND 7
Fake blood on your face
Who are you, calm gentleman
Lying next to me?
Carole Desfosses
watching them play like
children running through the leaves
wishing we were them
Chelsea Booth
Her cream-colored cheek
Turns a playful shade of red
On mornings like these.
Bill Brower
give up or keep on
try to remember the past
and how far we’ve come
Candi Heberer
Your smile I can see
It lit up the room that night
And I dream of you
Meghan Busalacchi
happiness entails
quality not quantity
people over things
Josh Clements
In summer we say,
"I wish it wasn't so hot",
Until winter comes
James Jedibudiah
calm agressively
distant remarks/slight comments
the sound of tension
Sheridan Shauntee
Midnight approaches.
Incense clouds the air - I pray
for souls departed
Missy Midborn
Droplets of water
Scurry across the window
Bringing along friends
Megan Beukema
Flowers in your hair
Leaves in your jacket, come on
We’re late, hippie girl!
Carole Desfosses
your soft little smile
still makes me melt even as
I lie here alone
Molly Coughlin
Lighting a fire
On vibrant autumn leaves
With rays of sunshine
Kirstin Fosdal
Here by the fire
A wool blanket around me
I sip hot cocoa
Meghan Busalacchi
mullets, knives, back rubs
everyone finding out
fight club and sisters
Megan Sharrow
My heart feels at home
follow the familiar road
it seems quite perfect
Lia Moschella
Pretty girls cough and cry
Sheilded men disrupt the fun
We are all children
Grant Wheeler
the depth of your eyes
surrender my soul to you
this is truly love
Lori Bills
Disorienting
None of my clocks are correct
What time is it now?
Beau Smithback
little by little
the pieces come together
building up to one
Heather Peters
"real" Officer Sue
she called out to Ms. Pirate
me-my sword she claimed
Emily Anderson
The homeless people
On State Street confuse me, why
don't they get a job?
Brianna Bakker
Brown leaves on the ground
Dispersed by children's playtime
Once raked into piles
Julie Tucker
Three girls sit with their
backs to the fireplace warming
everything inside.
Megan Beukema
Why do trees turn red?
Is it blood from their old roots,
that in the leaves shine?
Adrian Hermosillo
dancing in the rain
under the bright shining lights
time is standing still
Missy Barry
the work has piled up
procrastination is good
pumpkin ale is great
Sahil Timbadia
your eyes opening
be part of you forever
you know a new world
Maren Bean
