from sun to flower

like tangled string, we are all

interconnected

Tom Ball

took eleven years

for marriage to teach us that

home is not a place

Sarah Baranowski

Sneaking through the ground

The little sprout stands proudly

nourished by the soil

Ashley Adelmeyer

flora and fauna

cycle air and energy

keeping all alive

Kristin Charipar

A long road ahead

running further behind me

forever is now

Justina Bond

closed hand on closed hand

linked together in a hope

of something better

Katie Ginther

To over water

Oh my basil plant of death

I apologize

Matt Jarosz

Relationships are:

Relating to someone else

Relating to you

Liz Arata

Why must we settle

on people who can't give us

what we need the most?

Ellen Pennow

We sometimes forget

walking with our heads held high

We are just tenants

Raymond Lo

brothers and sisters

a special kind of friendship

unique bond of birth

Christopher Foelker

Girl in the stable

Smell of leather and warm hay

Gentle hand, soft nose

Anne Shudy Palmer

Reaching out my hand

you grasp it tightly, and we

entwine our fingers

Allie Movrich

This is what they see

It's not what you always are

No one makes it on their own

Duc Luu

Retired tractors,

Old farm equipment scattered

Deep in slow decay

Nick Pearson
